From the May, 1933 ish of Popular Science: a bunch of amusing faces you can make by arranging your hands just so, while clutching various props. Link

Golan Levin & Andrea Boykowycz were invited to contribute some work to a Dutch exhibition on humor.

They did a series of Dutch master re-creations using finger puppets. I think the photos are pretty amusing, but the curator cut them from the show saying that they "weren't funny".

Is it just me, or does that hand-face look a lot like George Burns?
