How can I cheaply display jigsaw puzzles on the wall?

I have a bunch of completed and glued jigsaw puzzles that I want as wall decor. They are backed with thin craft cardboard. A friend helpfully nailed some of them straight to the wall, but they are getting a bit battered like that. I haven't found any large frames cheaply. Any ideas?

You can cut thin plywood or cardboard to size for the back and have 1/8" plexiglass cut for front. They will last forever and are easy to keep clean

We have two entire rooms with walls covered in puzzles. We used push pins because they leave tiny holes that can be filled in with paint when the puzzles are removed. If you don't want wall to wall, use a section (say 3'x6'), put the puzzles up and use small boards to frame or painter's tape.

I have read where rubber cement works. For the amount of puzzles we put up, it would have been truly too expensive. You might try that?
