source tells us: "In the 30's,
Tower Press to make cardboard wares. During the war, the two founders of the game side of the company, met when interred on the
Isle of Man (they both had German family roots). Tower Press are best known for their ranges of jigsaws over the years, but many delightful children's games were produced from the early 50's onwards. In 1969
Waddingtons bought the business, probably to take a competitor (particularly with jigsaws) out of the market."
