PUZZLE HOLDER

This jig-saw puzzle holder comprises two co-extensive work panels hinged together at their inner edges to take a closed folded position and an open coplanar position with their inner edges forming a smooth joint. A liner sheet covers and is secured to the panels and serves as a work surface upon which puzzle pieces can be assembled. To each panel is associated a generally co-extensive flexible cover sheet to cover puzzle pieces on the liner sheet. The liner and cover sheets are hook-and-loop fastener fabric so that the cover sheets can adhere to the liner sheet to surround the partially assembled puzzle pieces and thus prevent shifting of these pieces. When the pieces are being assembled, the cover sheet is rolled up and retained in an out-of-the-way position. Each panel is provided with a drawer to store individual puzzle pieces. Each panel is used to assemble half of the completed puzzle and the two halves are assembled across the smooth joint of the two open coplanar panels. A foldable support serves to maintain in a viewing position the picture of the completed puzzle on the cover of the puzzle container box. Latches releasably retain the panels and drawers in closed position. The outer portions of the panels form a handle for conveniently carrying the folded holder.
