“Card Sharks” depicts a group of fashionistas playing it cool at the beach, while competing hard at a serious game (and looking great to boot). We love the art from Alex Ross in this Saturday Evening Post cover from 1943, originally entitled Card Game at the Beach. Which style would you say is most deserving of a comeback? The bandana under a patterned fabric sombrero, or perhaps the ruffled doily mid-rise swimsuit and cap is more your style? As we all nostalgically say, they had it made back then…
This design by PAR includes a number of fun puzzles within the puzzle, as well as an irregular edge to keep you on your toes. You gotta stay sharp to compete against these Card Sharks!
Note: PAR Puzzles traditionally do not include a reference image in their boxes and other than a small image on the label, we have respectively followed suit. A digital reference image and whimsy list (silhouette pieces) are available here.

Worth every penny!
What a dream to do! The irregular edge and cut-outs added to the challenge of this beauty of a puzzle, and I did find it challenging! I love the thickness and feel of the pieces, which tesselate snugly and beautifully into position. The art work, well - simply a joy to spend time with. Worth every penny!
Hoping for more PAR + StumpCraft
This was my only PAR + SC collab puzzle and I loved it. Great quality you'd expect from SC and a fun cut design with irregular edge. I was happy to work on this one and hoping for more in the future.
Loved it!
Another great puzzle, have enjoyed all your puzzles, but pairing with PAR was a special treat for us. Hope you will partner again with them. Was fun to do it without using the picture (as you had to with PAR).
Spectacular!
Ever puzzle is a work of art!
