JIG-SAW PUZZLE WITH IDENTICALLY SHAPED AND SIZED INTERLOCKING JIG-SAW ELEMENTS Inventor Sam L. Savage ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A jig-saw puzzle in several embodiments which em- ploys identically shaped and sized interlocking jig-saw elements. Since shape and size do not provide clues to position, the puzzle's working is increased in difficulty. In a first embodiment, the tesselate elements are shaped into the outline of a lizard. They bear portions of a picture (e.g. a portrait) on one side and have lizard -1- markings on the other side to allow it to be used as either a tesselation toy (lizard) or jig-saw puzzle (portrait side). In a second embodiment the picture includes picture sub-units (such as a chair in a room picture) which may be inserted in different positions in the picture field formed by the puzzle. This re- sults in a jig-saw puzzle with a number of different solutions. A third embodiment is similar to the second but employs a straight line border. Not all pieces of the puzzle are identically sized and shaped although a great number are, and even many of the edge pieces can be inserted in a number of positions along the edge. This third embodiment may also employ moveable picture sub-units in the picture field. In a fourth embodiment, one or more separate sub-puzzles may be interlocked to form a larger puzzle, as in a mural. -2-
