Sam Fuller was the model for this poster. He's been one of my regular models since he was knee-high to a grasshopper. In this poster he's trying to put together the parts to one of those children's toys that's designed to build spatial comprehension. I suppose it worked because he's fairly bright. He's modeled for three other posters, too. Once with his mom, and once with his dad, and once by himself. That's him and his mom in "Bananas."
