A breezy, handsomely constructed puzzle whose theme is revealed at 52-Across.

While most crossword grids are square, this one has an ingenious reason for being elongated. This may be my favorite Monday puzzle of all time, proving that easy can also be a wow.

Here’s a fun subject for a puzzle, and there is a little surprise at 41-Across.

This clever puzzle is a collaboration that was done entirely by email. At the time it was made, the two constructors had never met face to face!

This puzzle’s clever theme is signaled by the circled letters in the middle of the grid.

This crossword contains eight interlocking theme answers — with a wordplay twist.

At 14 years 2 months, Ben Pall was, until 13-year-old Daniel Larsen unseated him on February 14, 2017, the youngest constructor I have published in The Times. The puzzle pays tribute to some pop culture icons from far before his time.

Lynn Lempel is known affectionately as the Queen of Mondays. She makes puzzles with simple, elegant themes and all familiar vocabulary. The six longest Across entries in this puzzle feature a familiar progression at their ends.

A theme straight out of the Bad Puns Department.

By William I. Johnston
Every great themed crossword is based on an original idea. The theme of this one (as shown in 20-, 26-, 43- and 51-Across) is simple. But notice how the idea is carried through in the black squares and the starts of the clues.

The answer at 68-Across explains this puzzle’s shaded squares. This was Joanne’s first-ever crossword — quite a debut!
