About Paul Gallant
Lived 1944 – 2011 (aged 67). Paul Gallant was a Canadian entrepreneur.
Paul-Émile Gallant (July 17, 1944 – September 13, 2011) was a Canadian entrepreneur who developed Puzz 3D three-dimensional jigsaw puzzles. He is also credited with inventing both the Wrebbit Puzzle Machine, which is now known as the Puzzle Shots Factory, and the Perfalock flat foam puzzle.
Gallant was born in Edmundston, New Brunswick.
His new Puzz 3D puzzles, which often could be built into models of actual buildings and other landmark structures, could be placed on display indefinitely after completion. He founded his own company for Puzz 3D, which he called Wrebbit Inc., in partnership with Rene Binette. The logo for Wrebbit became an easily identifiable frog. The three dimensional product line was launched at the Canadian Toy & Hobby Fair in 1992. He was survived by his three children, ten grandchildren and two sisters. His wife, Françoise, died in 2010.
