Day of puzzles and puzzles
January 29 is celebrated a holiday of puzzles and puzzles. This date is associated with the very first invention of puzzles in the world, which was created by John Spilsbury in the 18th century.
The inventor was an engraver and cartographer, so he came up with such a thematic game, dividing the black and white map of the world along the contour of the borders of the countries and offering to assemble them again. Such puzzles until the 19th century, they were used as educational elements, because quite expensive wood was used for the base and they were not allowed to be played with.
Later, wood was replaced with cardboard, so puzzles became available to everyone, and the first mass production of puzzles was even established in the USA. The popularity of the game grew every year, because it combined excitement and relative cheapness. Currently, production technology has changed little, therefore puzzle and are still popular in the world.
