I am emptying my home of superflous items and I have 2 childhood puzzles made by [URL removed]
1. Jaymar 2902 – Davy Crockett “Indian Attack” based on Fess Parker TV show. Pieces are all there in good condition, box shows wear but no tape.
2. Jaymar Michael Myerberg’s “Hansel and Gretel – Tiny Tots Jigsaw Puzzle Strawberry Patch”, based on movie. Pieces again all there and in good condition. Box is rough but with tape will still hold together.
Any evaluations?

A good way to get an idea of value is to run a Google search. Doing this for the Davy Crockett puzzle, and then clicking on “shopping” at the top of the page, yields three results for $14.99, $20.00, and $70.00.
The highest price listing should always be thrown out, since those listings are not going to sell. Consider that if two examples are available for no more than $20.00 then someone is not likely going to pay $70.00. Furthermore, if the puzzle were worth $70.00, then the low-priced listings would have quickly sold.
As a result, we can conclude that the puzzle is likely worth no more than $20.00. My guess is that it is probably worth $10.00 to $15.00 at the most.
I was unable to locate any results for the Hansel and Gretel puzzle, so unless the wrong name was given, it appears to be more scarce. This does not, however, mean that it is necessarily worth any more than the first puzzle.

Thanks to both of you. Since this is my first venture, I appreciate any help and both answers gave me distinct direction.

Remember these tips:
- Use links to other sources to support your opinions
- Use examples where possible
- Put yourself in the inquirers shoes: what extra info would be helpful?
Should I post a comment or an answer?
You can only post one answer, so make it count. Maybe your reply is more fitting as a comment instead?
Post an answer for:
- Replies that directly and specifically answer the original question
Post a comment for:
- "Thanks," "Me too," "I agree," or "Works for me" types of replies
- When you would like the original poster to provide more details
- When you have more to add to someone else's question or answer
