Mystery Kite Face

June 12, 2011 1:14 AM

Who's face is on this kite?

Help settle a debate! This kite has flown at the Wirral Kite Festival for the past couple of years, but I've never had a chance to ask the flyer who it is.

Opinion in our house is currently divided between Johnny Cash, Patrick McGoohan (I'm not a number, I'm a kite!) and Gore Vidal. Thanks!

My vote is Johnny Cash. I mean look at him: high as a kite as usual.

Yup, I think Johnny Cash, too. And someone else who was there with a camera also votes Cash.

Best answer: It is indeed Johnny Cash, the kitemaker is Kelvin Woods.

Shoot. I thought it was Gore Vidal too, and was loving the idea that someone would put Gore Vidal on a kite.
