Lot Essay
The present work was illustrated on the cover of the May 6, 1961 issue of The Saturday Evening Post.
The Post described, "Our cover by Denmark's Kurt Ard seems to ask: Who looks sillier—a little man in a five-gallon hat or a grown woman in a space helmet? 'A Kennedy cut, maybe?' the coiffeuse suggested to Two-Gun's mother. 'Bangs,' said mom. 'Bang, bang,' said Two-Gun. Halfway through the process of washing, cutting, rolling, cold-waving, neutralizing, rinsing, setting, drying and combing, it dawns on Two-Gun why this hair-raising ritual is called a permanent. At this point he escapes into a dream world...The question remains—why does a cowpoke allow himself to be corralled into such a sissy place? That's an easy one, pard. Two-Gun doesn't read too well, and he thought the sign outside said 'Beauty Saloon.'" (The Saturday Evening Post, May 6, 1961, p. 3)
