Ice Cream Diva Cone...by phone

An enticing picture on the side of the cafe at Gravesend's Gordon Gardens, closed due to inclement weather/end of season (?)...

I once read a book by Robert A Heinlein, a progenitor of the noodle brain "thought processes" of Enoch Musch and its ilk: a 600 page "sci-fi epic" with a collection of silliness presented as snappy aphorisms - "A camel is a mouse designed by a committee".

This painting illustrates that very point, in that a committee consisting of Jackson Pollock, Andy Warhol and Amy Winehouse, tasked with designing a winning ice cream cone to be sold on sunny days in untold number, would have come up with just this and the world would have been the better for it. Or not, as the case may be.
