    Have you ever seen a patternless crossword puzzle? All white squares. No numbers in the puzzle. You have to figure out where the words start/end and fill in the black squares...

      6 Down in the concise is probably "mole", as in a birthmark.

            8 across in concise, "racy"

              In concise, I think 17 down is "rake" and 18 across is "mass"

                Also in concise, I think 13 down is "cravat" and 19 across is "reaction"

                The industrial revolution cheapened everything.

                      Jumbo General Knowledge, 48 across, I think "honeybee"

                      This one should be called trivia. I'm not good at trivia.

                        Here are another two variations, same weekend 8 page pullout

                        20250923_082804.jpg
                        I feel this latter is closest to yours in that any answer is an aid to multiple other clues.

                          do-able; I've left the final answer for... you
