it began a while ago. Robotoil has an impressive four panel red face street piece from way back in the day that hit ebay a few years back. Very nice.
Re: and so it begins...
1997 Obey Giant installation recovered from demolition in San Diego, CA. Four 18x24 pasters are wheat pasted together on plywood to create "Four Panel Red Face". Note: a small portion of the lower prints are missing the corresponding giant text. This is due to the prints laying across 2 pieces of plywood. When the wall was torn down, they separated. The pasters stayed at the construction site for 8 months before coming down. The pattern from the wheat pasting by artist Shepard Fairey" can still be seen.mose wrote:it began a while ago.

Re:
i've shipped over 100 packages via greyhound. For stuff that doesn't need insurance and/or is big and not likely to be damaged, it is the best/fastest/cheapest way. Sometimes, when I drive to go on vacation, I'll ship my clothes and anything that won't fit in the car. Drop off the 1st load, run to the nearest greyhound, and grab the rest.admonkey wrote:I've shipped very (and I mean VERY) large items by Greyhound before.
