Overview
This is a wide-format 1000-piece panoramic jigsaw puzzle featuring an idyllic wilderness montage produced under the Realtree outdoor brand. It combines classic North American wildlife artwork—including black bears, whitetail deer, and howling wolves—with signature camouflage border accents. MasterPieces uses recycled board and non-toxic soy-based inks for its modern puzzle lines.
Story
Realtree transformed hunting culture in 1986 by photorealistically matching natural bark and leaves on fabric. This panoramic puzzle celebrates that wilderness aesthetic, gathering iconic American wildlife into a single dramatic landscape scene.
Maker / Origin
MasterPieces Inc. was founded in 1995 by former professional baseball player David Ondrejko with a focus on high-quality adult jigsaw puzzles. Over nearly three decades, the company established key partnerships with brands like Realtree, the NFL, and Hershey's to produce specialized themed puzzles.
Condition & Value
The exterior box shows minor shelf wear around the edges and light creasing at the top notch, but remains structurally intact and presentable. Completeness of the internal pieces cannot be visually verified from the exterior. Sealed condition commands top dollar, while missing pieces reduce value significantly.
