Crafty tradesman confused real trade (3,6)
I believe the answer is:
art dealer
'crafty tradesman' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I can't see?
'confused real trade' is the wordplay.
'confused' indicates anagramming the letters.
'real'+'trade'='realtrade'
'realtrade' is an anagram of 'ART DEALER'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for art dealer that I've seen is " one who has a gallery, maybe".)
