Here’s another old shot l found that didn’t make the cut for the book. l think this got used in the Melbourne Stencil Capital book.

2004 maybe, can’t remember, but it’s before Rone had long hair and became fixated with Jane Doe.

So Im still on my way around the world, currently in Hong Kong I finally can post some more pics:

Then I got over to tokyo again..

ill show you more of this one some other time…

Have also been taking tones of photos of type & other signs

I started taking pics of these beauty & hair signs in london but have found more of them in New york & L.A. there are very Patrick Nagel

Then just some good ol’ 3D:

these kinds of this are what we based the Nightcat wall on:

and love the retro Japan style:

So im back in Tokyo again…

It’s amazing as usual

But as we all know I like to put up posters when im away and I have been to Tokyo a few times now so what I often do is stash things like extension poles so I can come back and use them if I ever come back.

Last night I was stoked to find one such extension pole was still in the garden bed where I left it 6 months ago, so I took it back to the hotel i am staying at. I couldn’t find a place to leave it that wasn’t a pile of rubbish so I hide it between the two buildings behind the little wall:

But as I was trying to put it in the hidden corner I found there was something else there already, it was a tall cardboard box, so I pulled it out so I could stash the pole there. The cardboard box was rotting & covered in spiders and slugs but it was heavy but I was intreged so I tore it open like a kid on xmas:

As soon as I opened it I knew what it was but I rushed inside before unwrapping it…

Stonehenge is a prehistoric monument located in the English county of Wiltshire, about 3.2 kilometres (2.0 mi) west of Amesbury and 13 kilometres (8.1 mi) north of Salisbury. One of the most famous prehistoric sites in the world, Stonehenge is composed of earthworks surrounding a circular setting of large standing stones and sits at the centre of the densest complex of Neolithic and Bronze Age monuments in England, including several hundred burial mounds.^[1] Archaeologists had believed that the iconic stone monument was erected around 2500 BC, as described in the chronology below. However one recent theory has suggested that the first stones were not erected until 2400-2200 BC,^[2] whilst another suggests that bluestones may have been erected at the site as early as 3000 BC Blah blah blah…
