Printed box featuring an illustration by Haring of intertwined bodies. The box contains a puzzle that when completed reproduces the design on the box cover.
This example complete with the button featuring the same design, and a small piece of red paper stating "Free Admission With Button".
Also present is the original mailing envelope with Haring's printed mailing label addressed in his hand to artist Melissa Meyer and rubber stamped by him with his radiating baby logo.
Created as an invitation to Haring's birthday party at the Palladium in NYC. The puzzle is scarce, but rarely found complete with the button and the red paper still present, let alone with the original hand-addressed mailing envelope.
