Clue/Question: The coin was in such bad condition, they couldn’t make – – –
Pre-Answer: Five Words (5-letters) (2-letters) (5-letters) (2-letters) (2-letters)
Answer: HEADS OR TAILS OF IT
(Fantastic pun! None of the clue words were new, but four of the jumbles were. We’ve seen both “sludoh” and “sipemo” before. The answer letter layout was an excellent jumble. It gave nothing away. The cartoon has plenty to like too. The three main characters, a sunbather in the distance, a palm tree lined coast, and the classic sinking sailboat on the horizon. Marvelous! Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR
The cartoon is a hoot Unc! She appears to be a pin-up girl??
Oh this jumbler. FORBID, ATRIUM, IMPOSE OH MY!! Those clue words were woozies I had to back into all three of them. I went ahead and read the jumbler and studied the cartoon and fortunately knew the answer. Then I knew what letters I needed and played around with the letters. Got the clue words! Grand puzzler!!!!!
ATRIUM and LAPTOP were the tough words. Somehow, I saw the final answer almost immediately. Very nice!
