TO HELP BUILD UP SIR WILFRED GRENFELL'S HOSPITAL WORK IN LABRADOR. SOLD FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE INTERNATIONAL GRENFELL ASSOCIATION & SPECIALLY MANUFACTURED BY RAPHAEL TUCK AND SONS LTD. Taken from an article by Anne Williams (GPC Quarterly, vol.6, number 1, march 2005) the following info "From 1932 on Tuck produced a special series of 4 LABRADOR Zag-Zaw Picture Puzzles, sales of which benefited the International Grenfell Association. The puzzle pictures pertained to the medical mission established by Sir Wilfred Grenfell in Labrador; the pieces shaped like seals, whales, bears, dogs, pine trees, kayaks, paddles, gannets, and even penguins also highlighted the polar theme. The sturdy card box are not orange as most Zag-Zaws of the time are, but silver and blue. Handsome silver lettering and an arctic scene decorates the lid."
