Puzzle Description:

Unscramble the letters in "A1" and you will get the abbreviation for three words depicted here in 5 parts of the one thing that is three words. To win, you must identify the anagram, what it is an abbreviation for, and what five parts are contained therein.

Too many ways to unscramble A1, can anyone recommend a good anagram finder?

1A = "The First Amendment"

The 5 parts:

freedom to peaceably assemble (represented by picket sign)
freedom of religion (represented by crucifix)
freedom of speech (represented by person speaking)
freedom of press (represented by newspaper)
freedom to petition the government (represented by gavel)

For a few minutes I had no idea where to even start, but it came to me surprisingly quickly.

Gosh! All I could think of was a bottle of steak sauce. Then, when I started solving, it looked like the beginnings of a maze, so I thought it might be A1: Ah-maze-ing :)

Kristen, I enjoy reading about your thought process while solving.

Bill, thanks bunches. I got the idea from the 1A radio program on NPR, that is named after the 1st Amendment.

I still don't know what the anagram is? Like I see Michael has identified what the pictures are, but I still don't get how the anagram works?
