About the Image:
The iconic “Greetings from California” design is inspired by vintage postcards originally made famous by Curt Teich, a German-American publisher who helped popularize large-letter postcards in the early 20th century.
Teich’s offset printing innovations revolutionized the postcard industry in the U.S. after his 1904 visit to Germany. Though his company closed in 1978, his archive of over 360,000 postcards and related materials now lives at the Newberry Library in Chicago—forming the largest public postcard collection in the United States.
About Oakland Puzzle Company
Oakland Puzzle Company is a woman-owned puzzle brand with deep Bay Area roots. Our mission and promise is to support Bay Area artists and organizations through fair licensing and real partnerships. We team up with local artists and organizations to turn their work into puzzles worth losing an afternoon to. Some are cut and mixed by hand in our small East Bay factory. Others are produced by an overseas manufacturing partner we chose for their quality, social, and environmental standards. Either way, every puzzle starts here at home.
