Constructor's Note
This is one of my absolute faves. I hope you enjoy solving it as much as I banged my head against the wall constructing it.

    Loved it! (Bummed that I couldn't find my typo… it was in 57A / 58D.) FYI the cross-references in the clues to 43D, 48D, and 60D are a bit off.

      Thank you for pointing that out! I had cleaned up the fill and added a few blocks, then forgot to correct those clues. Fixed now!
