The TUCO Work Shop Series Vintage Puzzle 1940s/1950s - Guarded Coast Series 5980 ~ Puzzle Collections

This puzzle (and the other collectible Tuco puzzles listed in my shop) was found in a barn on our homestead. It is believed they have been in the same dry spot for over 30 years.

Vintage puzzle from TUCO as a series in The TUCO Work Shops. The pieces are thicker than modern puzzle pieces at 3/16 of an inch, making them easy to handle. This company was in Lockport, NY, dating back to the 1930s.

This one is labeled Guarded Coast and features very large boulders along a coastline. It is 19" X 14" in size. The puzzle has not been completed, and it is difficult to know for sure if all pieces are there as the box estimates the number of pieces, but it is likely based on the condition it was kept. It also has a note written by a previous owner reflecting that all pieces are present.

The box is in ok condition for its age. There are several marks from old masking tape used to keep it closed. Some masking tape still is present on the box. There are a few tatters along the bottom edges of the box. The overall condition of the box is shown in the photos. The box structure is good, with no broken corners or dents.
