The Mysterious Mr. Head

I recently purchased this
and have to ask
has anyone seen anything like it ?

It's apparently a bust of JFK
and is literally made out of hundreds of layers of
white cardboard ( like posterboard ).

I'm sure it wasn't recently made
( not laser cut I'm sure )
&
after close examination
you can see that each and every piece has an
outline in black pen or paint
and was glued together after the pieces were cut out and traced.


How did they do this ?

It baffles me

I originally purchased it to resell
but I wouldn't even know where to begin describing it !

Any thoughts ????
