Morty Comix # 2528





Morty Comix # 2528 was drawn on the top portion of a letter-size sheet of paper and then cut down to the size of a narrow strip. It was then rolled up into a tight coil and placed inside an empty plastic gumball bubble.




Later, at the McCleary Laundrymat, in McCleary, Washington, I noticed an opening in the metal chair frame that looked just the right size for the ball. So I dropped it in. Sounded like it made quite a journey before it landed to a stop in there.

This is the same laundrymat where Morty Comix # 2482 was deposited last December and recorded on film by Ron Austin and Louise Amandes for the Bezango WA documentary. Not too many weeks after our visit, someone plowed their car through the front doors (maybe the driver was all excited about hunting down another Morty Comix!). Obviously, the place has since been repaired.
