Gibsons Spirit of the 80’s 1000pc Puzzle
$19.99 Original price was: $19.99.$15.99Current price is: $15.99.
With good reason, this decade became known as the ‘Swinging Sixties’. For hip teens
This decade overflowed with technological advances – a revolution served up with silicon micro-chips, fibre optics, compact discs, camcorders, barcodes and the Sony Walkman to accompany the lonely jogger. The home computer was becoming part of the family scene along with electronic games; the chunky mobile phone was a favourite of the ‘yuppie’ generation. For some, the exciting way to keep in touch was with citizens band radio (CB) which was legalised in 1981. Not all innovations were a success; the Sinclair C5 battery-powered run-about (‘no license, no road tax: even14-year-olds can use it’) proved to be unroadworthy.
Global communication created vast audiences for world events, such as the royal weddings of Charles and Diana in 1981 and then Andrew and Fergie in 1986. Television’s influence increased with Channel 4’s transmission starting in 1982. The following year, breakfast television began and it was the antics of Roland Rat that saved TV-am. The new ‘soap’ was EastEnders.
As with all Gibsons jigsaws, we use 100% recycled puzzle board, FSC paper and work with the best artists from all around the world. The beautifully illustrated pieces are designed to fit perfectly together; in fact, we use the thickest puzzle board on the market. Everyone loves a Gibsons jigsaw, even Her Majesty the Queen has been spotted with one.
Weve made some positive changes to our processes, so you can be sure youre getting the same great puzzles and know they are kinder to the environment. Not only does the box have a fresh new look, but weve used biodegradable clear labels to secure the lid instead of shrink wrap, reducing our plastic waste. We use vegetable-based inks too. The gloss coating on the box gives extra protection and the puzzle pieces are stored in a plastic bag that can be recycled by most councils.
Because the box is slightly smaller than our previous designs, we need less room to transport our products which reduces our carbon footprint and means you can store your puzzles more easily. We have also popped an artwork poster inside for you to reference whilst you piece together your lovely jigsaw puzzle.
