4000, MB, The Census at Bethlehem, Bruegel

MB manufactured this extraordinary puzzle in 1981, so it has been out of catalog for more than 40 years now. The title is The Census at Bethlehem, and the painter is Pieter Bruegel the Elder, one of the favorite artists among jigsaw puzzle enthusiasts.

The puzzle is INCOMPLETE (4030 pieces; 2 missing pieces). The pieces are in very good condition, except for 1 broken piece, as you can see in the photographs. The box is in very good condition, with some shelf wear, two tears on two corners of the base, and stains inside the lid.

This is the largest version of this puzzle, but there are smaller editions available by other brands. An example is the 1000 piece edition by Puzzelman.
