Is William S Burroughs haunting a supermarket? — UPDATED

William Gibson writes, "Cory, who the heck is this guy? If you don't know, maybe BB readers do?"

Mystery solved! Bill sez, "It's Marcel Duchamp, by Irving Penn!"


See this picture. Is it W.S Burroughs? Strange location, it is a painting or colorized photo hanging in a local supermarket called Treasure Island. It is alongside a wall where they keep the shopping carts, and the only other photo of anyone is one about five or six feet away on same wall, of Elvis!
