The Arrow Games monopoly is finally broken right at the end on the 1970's ...
1979 :- Set of 4 by Falcon Games. Falcon set reference. - No. 5403 Pics below
Despite the fact these were produced by Falcon,all 4 pictures had already been used by Arrows.
With the fishing scene forming part of the 1967 set.And the other 3 all featuring in the 1970 set.
I've quoted 1979 as the release date,because that's the copyright date on them.
But I've discovered they appear in Falcon's 1982 catalogue.Pictured right.

So they either had an unusually long shelf life for a tv spin-off jigsaw,
or they just used an old copyright date for some reason.Either way,unusual.
Small box,light blue edge -approx. 8.75" x 7" (22cm x 18cm) Comprises 12 large wooden pieces.
Rather unhelpfully,they're not given descriptive titles ...
They're not sequentially numbered ...
And there's no indication on each box that the other 3 even exist ! So,in no particular order ...
