Nickname on 1952 posters crossword clue
51 Across · WSJ Crossword, July 15, 2026 · 3 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Nickname on 1952 posters” is IKE. It appears as 51 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of July 15, 2026, a Wednesday puzzle titled “Drop Dead Gorgeous” by Zachary David Levy, and it fills 3 squares running left to right from row 10, column 13 of the 15×15 grid.
The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with I and ends with E, and contains 2 vowels and 1 consonant. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Wednesday puzzles sit mid-week on the difficulty curve, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
