Nice! We had something like this hanging in our house when I was a kid. I think we probably only ever got about a third of the way through, over the course of 10 years!

When you finish that, time for an upgrade?

Where are they typically available? Is it on Amazon?

You know what that means... Someone has to make a gigantic crossword puzzle. (Me? But I don't know how to make it so big.)
