It’s a mural on the back of the consignment shop on 27th & Randolph St.

isn’t it a record store now? Dirt Cheap or something like that?

D’oh!  I haven’t been by there for a while, didn’t know it had changed hands.

I’ve been considering the idea of painting on that wall again.  Is that image a landmark that needs to be spruced up, or do we need to see something different?

Leora, I personally really like it as is. As far as I can tell it is still a vibrant, untarnished mural that is definitely eye-catching. And its different from the other murals in town.

Its unfortunate that a lot of Lincolnites drive right by and probably aren’t even aware the painting exists unless they are driving west of Randolph or actually stop to park in that lot back there. Its pretty damn cool.

Mr. T, I’m glad to hear it is still appreciated.  The reds could use another coat of paint.  That would be easy.
