LAST WEEK’S RESULTS:

Title: “There Were Signs”
Prompt: This puzzle’s contest answer is one of the 56 signers of the Declaration of Independence.
Answer: BENJAMIN FRANKLIN, found by 478 solvers, 462 of which were solo solves

Perfect score for solvers last week, 478 right answers out of 478 entries! Let’s see what nobody missed:

15-A: [1784: Here’s looking at you (and you!)] = BIFOCALS
21-A: [1749-1753; became a hot seller!] = LIGHTNING ROD
37-A: [c. 1760; two-in-one furniture!] = LIBRARY CHAIR. See here.
46-A: [c. 1775; how far can we go!?] = ODOMETER

Those are all (more or less) inventions of BENJAMIN FRANKLIN, found by everybody. Of course Sam Adams would’ve been another fun choice for this one…
