First four clues in original PDF were illegible, but found the same puzzle in a book, and the clues for 1-, 6-, 10-, and 14-Across are from that. Clues (and entries) in books weren't always the same as in the original, and in this case the clue for 1-Across in the original did seem to have "Colloq." at the end of it. But the book clue was simply "Magnate."

The original 39-Down clue was ["When you ___ a tulip ... "]. Removed the "a" for consistency with the answer, WORE A.
