I had my moments on wondering, at least ( three times, so far), but
flipping back and forth between tha image and pictures of pynchon, well,
the eyes, maybe, the nose and chin COULD be makeup, but ... but the ears (
and see Carlo Ginzburg on tge importance of those, in both art history and
crminology), and, I'm guessing, the teeth ... again, makeup, but ...

.... but too obvious, too visible, too "grabbable" or whatever (where did
that image come from?),again, watch that window, Pynchon disguised as
himself in 1970, I will of course admit defeat if/ when proven wrong, but
....

visibility, he just hates talking to the press and having his private life
pried into. Putting him in the Burke Stodger movie is absolutely perfect. I
can't imagine him wanting to appear anywhere else in the flick.
