Oliver's compositions? Fine examples (10)
I believe the answer is:
showpieces
'fine examples' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are plural nouns, I don't understand how they can define each other.
'oliver's compositions?' is the wordplay.
'oliver's' becomes 'show' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'compositions?' becomes 'pieces' ('piece' can be a synonym of 'composition').
'show'+'pieces'='SHOWPIECES'
