I have just discovered that as
well as the normal Jerome portrait, usually on a postcard, Jerome also
produced jigsaws from their photos. Here is an example, shown to me by
Alan Lutman.

Jigsaw
"This jigsaw
was made at a Jerome studio, based on a photograph supplied by a customer.
From the style, I guess the picture was taken in the 1920's somewhere on the
Thames. (I think the sign says boat trips to Teddington.)
My wife
and I have just put the jigsaw up on eBay, along with some other vintage
puzzles we have."

Question
"I have been
given a couple of Jerome jigsaws. I haven't seen any before and am
interested to learn more.
- Between which years did
Jerome operate?
- Were they prolific
producers of jigsaws?
I am a
jigsaw enthusiast and am always keen to collect different types, though I
can't find much on the internet with regard to Jerome."
