The Crackerjack Kid returns in full 4th Dimension espionage regalia with his 'Troubled Extra-Dimensional Agents in Action' postcard. What a gorgeous Lichtenstein-ish collage of secret agent fun! The Kid can really bring the Mail Art magic and he has woven a pretty good spell here. I am enjoying the life or death desperation felt without revealing too much situation detail. The ambiguity each viewer adds to the piece only furthers the mysterious tension. Add the Kid's playful gusto into the mix and voila! Sound the alarm!
I don't think a disguise will ever conceal the poor agent that owns these eyes. Perhaps that right eye is actually a single shot, tiny pistol? I love the Kid's version of "Mission to Heebee Jeebeeland". Thank you very much Kid and see you soon in the mail!
