Another Norman Saunders hideous Masterwork. The headhunters are the good guys in this piece. They are working for US Army Capt. Blackburn or some such, guerrilla killing "Japs". Kind of like Col. Kurtz collecting heads in Apocalypse Now. Based on a true story, supposedly. And I think the tag is "One Igorot (the tribe) was worth 10 Japs". Which makes each one worth 3.3 Bologna sandwiches according to your head/sandwich exchange rate. Classic example of Heads We Win .
Cargo cult?
ReplyDeleteYes, the current bartering scale equates to 3 human heads for a bologna sandwich.
