ABSTRACT:
A puzzle apparatus includes an assembly panel and a plurality of puzzle pieces adapted to be assembled in edge-to-edge contact with one another on the panel. At least one holding panel is also provided. The holding panel is connected to the assembly panel and is movable between a closed storage position overlying the assembly panel and an open assembly position exposing the assembly panel. Suitable structure is provided for retaining the pieces on the assembly and holding panels while permitting detachment of the pieces therefrom by manual manipulation of the pieces. Thus, the puzzle pieces remain in contact with the assembly and holding panels until manually repositioned so that if the puzzle is not completed during one sitting it can be stored for future attention.
