Looking for the Band

This was an interesting experiment in creating a twin-layered puzzle which thus provided an additional area for figure shapes to be incorporated into. Cut for a sky-diving enthusiast, the main theme of the Whimsies, were suitably biased towards that pursuit and include planes and free fall figures in the lower-silver-level along with two composite shaped parachutists, another free-faller, two jet planes and a NY Yankees logo in the surround.
The use of two thicknesses of ply served to raise the main subject area above the background, somewhat mirroring the techniques of one of my favourite vintage brands, that of the British York Series puzzles. See Treasures of the Shore as an example.
