Post No Bills

Broadway, New York

Some years (decades?) ago, I was taken with these “Post No Bills” stencils, much in the fashion of Allan Sillitoe’s The Death of William Posters. Above, one I shot recently; below images from years past. Click below to see them full-sized.

Work in Progress: Memories

East 86th Street, New York

On this site once stood the Orpheum Theater, next to it on the corner, Gray’s Papaya, and to the right of that on Third Avenue, a Baskin-Robbins ice cream shop where I worked evenings a few days a week in High School.
