Always liked this one or maybe I just like the phrase “Icky, Goopy, Pupa”... Believe it or not I composed such a phrase without completing a Masters in Creative Writing—I’m like self-taught, man!
Recycled Paper Greetings later produced this image as a post card, but alas their post card line was short lived. So other than the two or three archive copies I have, I’m not sure anyone would have evidence that such a grand publishing event ever took place. Although I like to imagine sent copies enjoyed and saved either stuffed into drawers or tacked onto bulletin boards being bleached out by years of sun exposure... I also like to imagine Maureen O’Sullivan circa 1934 naked, but that’s an entirely different story.
