I have seen the same puzzles in a mail order catalog that I have found in a discount store. The discount store price was about $7.95 however the same puzzle through mail order will be double that price then add shipping. You are much better off to check the $1 stores, or $5 stores first. Then try Target or K Mart (I am personally boycotting Wal-Mart because of their rip off return policies). <br /> <br />To keep the puzzle together before framing (if you desire to frame it) there are several glues especially for puzzles. The glue is applied to the back of the puzzle. I have heard people say they have used contact paper even on the front. But that makes it hard to see the puzzle after it is framed. <br /> <br />Framing or framing and matting will be the most expensive part of your new puzzle picture. If you can find a premade frame it will be much cheaper. For a large puzzle a frame can cost $100 easily. Check out other options first before going to a professional framer. <br /> <br />I also have a nice display pic of the Timken Four Aces. I used to work for Rail Bearing Service. We remaned Timken bearings. Timken even bought out Rail Bearing Service. My boss gave me a ton of black and white pics of the Four Aces. I picked out the four best ones and my friend (who worked at the frame shop) got them matted and framed for me. So that is another nice picture I have that is train related.
