Give a Hand to Dustin Hamby

Wait... oh, make that, "I got a hand from Dustin Hamby!"

This piece--Midas's gold hand--arrived just like this (naked; no envelope). As if the piece wasn't amazing enough as it is, I'm impressed that its unique shape made it through the mail all in one piece. The back side is made of felt and the address label, return address label, and stamp are all glued directly onto the felt backing. The hand is exactly life-size. It's one of the more spectacular things I've ever gotten in my mailbox.

GREAT JOB, Dustin!
