Vintage Comics

A new Comic Book Shop opened in the hood, and this mural has appeared on the side of it.

Comics #1

It’s signed – Troy Love Gates …B5M and Thanks Kwest (like the best graf writer … maybe ever) .. Kirk … Simon and the rest disappear behind signage & trash.

Comics #2

Not sure if the Thanks are for helping him paint it, or for their inspiration. The store was closed, so I didn’t go in and ask.

Comics #3

They seem to sell comic books and  comic book toys. I saw lots of neat stuff in the window. I couldn’t tell what might be vintage or a re-pro.

Old Gold

Graf Art and Street Art & Murals were around for awhile before I clued in.

Gold1 #2

Quite often I find untagged pieces 10 years or older.

Gold1 #1

Paint peeling, colors fading and  bricks flaking, they reveal recent urban histories.

Gold1 #3

I admit I enhanced this one.

Gold1 #4

I believe it’s worth documenting.

Gold1 #5

So begins my “Old Gold” series of Bits, Pieces and Murals that exceed a decade.
