Artist's Postcards
Little Sparta: Wild Hawthorn Press, n.d. (1997)
7.4 x 6.5cm, 4pp. Artist's postcard a drawing by Gary Hincks of a row of growing beans above which a model airplane has been placed on a string and thin stake presumably to keep birds off the planting.

Row of beans
And one old bomber
To scare the birds.
It appears this drawing was from an actual such installation in the garden of Andrew Whittle's Rose Cottage. Whittle was a stone carver and a collaborator with Finlay. VG+.
