An article about an insignificant jigsaw-puzzle "brand". With no articles indicating either its significance or popularity in mainstream culture. At the best, should be redirected to its owner's article J. W. Spear & Sons Daiyusha (talk) 05:31, 21 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It's not an insignificant jigsaw-puzzle "brand". A board game that was produced for 55 years which played a significant role in the entertainment of thousands of families during wars of the 20th century and are still owned by thousands of families. They manufactured 100's of puzzle topics and thousands of copies. A simple search on Google, board games sites or even Ebay can prove how many this "brand" has a significance. J. W. Spear & Sons produced the puzzle for 18 years while the previous company Hayeter and Co founded in 1928 was around for 42 years.

Keep There's coverage in books like Steam Trains and Jigsaw Puzzles and Collecting Classic Girls' Toys. As a by-the-way, it was interesting to read recently that Eileen Southgate, who painstakingly traced the connectome of C. elegans also liked solving large jigsaw puzzles. Putting together the world's knowledge is the greatest puzzle and it doesn't help if we hide some of the pieces. Andrew🐉(talk) 10:48, 21 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Fails GNG and NCORP. Article does not have SIGCOV from IS RS for a stand alone article; sources in the article are not IS RS with SIGCOV and most of the article is unsourced OR/SYNTH. Steam Trains and Jigsaw Puzzles and Collecting Classic Girls' Toys listed above does not have SIGCOV. The other keep vote is an appeal to nostalgia with no sources. // Timothy :: talk 01:01, 4 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to the Spears and sons company article would seem a logical choice. Oaktree b (talk) 17:02, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
