Object Description

Item is an untitled photo postcard by General Idea, sent to Mr. Peanut [Vincent Trasov] from Felicks [Felix Partz]. It is stamped "MYTH-TAKEN" and "Banal Retentive" on the verso, and the message reads "Dear Mr. Peanut // I saw your full page glossy in ["Time" crossed out] Esquire and thought perhaps you could tell me who that boy (bare chested) walking past the reflection in the background is. I was also wondering why there are two balck hands in two other pictures and so much leopard skin. Also is that pick of Anal Banana 'tres new feaces of 84' - DADA reshit. love felicks xxx". The image shows a close up of a metal tube and a clear plastic tube, with printed fabric, possibly clothing, behind.
