We understand there are plenty of competitors in the custom puzzle industry but allow us to explain why, with PAR, you are getting so much more than what any other company has to offer. Like all PAR Puzzles, your custom creation will be made from premium-quality materials, will feature the PAR signature seahorse piece, and will come in a black imageless box with a “par time” specific to your puzzle. Unfamiliar with the concept of par time? Let us explain. A par time is a time-limit challenge assigned to each PAR puzzle. Puzzlers then aim to beat the given par time to prove they are “up to par.” As a fast puzzler, one of the PAR Puzzle founders, John Henriques, created the concept of par time by timing his assembly of each newly cut puzzle. Now, par times are estimated, but be warned—they are not easy!

The entire history of the company and the craftsmanship behind your custom PAR is unlike any other as well. PAR Puzzles was founded in 1932 during the depths of the Great Depression when forced leisure time created an intensified demand for jigsaw puzzles. Like many others at the time, the founders, John Henriques and Frank Ware, were mostly interested in puzzling to occupy their time. However, they were aware of the heightened demand for high-quality puzzles and decided to try their hand at making puzzles for a living. For months, they experimented with various tools and materials until, eventually, they established strict specifications for their craft and began creating jigsaw puzzles that set a new standard. When the economy revived, many puzzle producers that came to be during the Great Depression shut down production and moved on to new endeavors, but PAR Puzzles grew and flourished, eventually becoming known as the “Roll-Royce of jigsaw puzzles.” Read more about PAR Puzzles’ origins here.
