According to
a poll from a jigsaw puzzle company site, 53% of people look at the picture of the puzzle while they are putting it together. I wonder if it is higher than that because this company makes fancy puzzles that might bring in more traditionalists. I was amazed to see that they are sold out of their puzzles with "
Super Fancy Piece Shapes."

| Recent picture taken in my childhood home, no box in sight. |
I grew up with a traditionalist that did not let us look at the picture while we worked on the puzzle.
 |
| A friend posted this picture, showing the looking-at-the-box method. |
The friend and I swapped puzzles (allowing for time for them to be decontaminated) and inside the box
 |
| was this box stand. |
Different strokes for different folks.
