The jigsaw has been around for about 235 years. As early as 1760, this popular and beneficial form of entertainment appeared almost simultaneously in France and Britain. Glue a picture onto the cardboard and cut it into small, irregular pieces. The original images were of education significance, either accompanied by essays suitable for young people, or taught history or geography to the emerging bourgeoisie.

   In 1762, during the reign of Louis xv of France, a salesman named di ma began to sell maps with small success. This kind of map puzzle requires rearranging the pieces. In London that same year, a printer by the name of John spears berry came up with a similar idea, inventing the ever-lasting jigsaw puzzle. With great skill he glued a map of England to the back of a very thin dining table, and then precisely cut it into small pieces along the edges of the counties. The idea would have brought great wealth, but poor spears bury didn't get the money, and he only lived to be 29, failing to see the huge success of the jigsaw puzzle. The real significance of his success lies in the fact that he has opened two important markets for his invention: the new middle-class consumers hungry for knowledge and status, and the harsh English schools of his time.  Spears bury lived in an age where the ability to read maps was a symbol of gentleman. The big tourism activity pushed this jigsaw craze to the peak, this is a grand live jigsaw activity, detailed showed a complete Europe. From this perspective, the jigsaw toy is to use the jigsaw pieces to carefully study the geography of the whole Europe. & ndash; State, principality, counties, cities, towns, rivers and so on. Knowing a map at the time was as proud as having a home page now.
