Stickers & Stencil

- Jess - Tuesday, October 4th, 2005 : goo

These were taken mid-September in Sacramento, south of K street downtown. Soon I'll be doing the K street area and expect much more interesting and numerous stuff. But as it is, I'm happy to have found these.

I particularly like this stencil, and I'm not sure why.

I've noticed a lot of electrical/phone/whatever boxes on the street covered in various tags. More-so than any buildings. Anyone know the reason for this? I have my theories, but as I'm no artist, I certainly have never tried any street art.
Anyway, I'm sure this sticker belongs to someone well known and was pasted by a fan.

& this is a clear image of the sticker above it just so nobody strains their eyes.

from my own experience that, the reason for tagging trash cans, pay-phones, newspaper stans, ect. is that The tags stay up longer.
