In one embodiment of the present invention, a backing sheet is placed in the well of the frame in overlying relationship with the bottom wall,and the jig-saw puzzle is assembled in the frame on top of the upper surface of the backing sheet. The completed jig-saw puzzle is then removed from the frame on top of the backing sheet so that an adhesive may be applied to the bottom wall of the frame. A slide board is then placed on top of the rim of the frame, and the completed puzzle and the backing sheet are placed on top of the slide board. The slide board and the backing sheet are then slipped out from under the completed puzzle which then drops into the well of the frame into engagement with the adhesive coated bottom wall thereof to affix the completed puzzle to the frame. In another embodiment of the present invention, a combination work assembly board and frame is provided and has a raised peripheral rim and a bottom wall defining a well therewithin for receiving the completed jig-saw puzzle, and a backing sheet is placed in the well in overlying relationship with the bottom wall so that the jig-saw puzzle can be assembled in the frame on top of the backing sheet. The front face of the completed jig-saw puzzle is then coated with an adhesive, and the adhesive coating is then permitted to cure. The backing sheet is then lifted out of the well to remove the coated puzzle therefrom. The rear face of the puzzle is then attached to the frame within the well.
