Poster Run in The Italian Market Area/South Philadelphia

Poetry Poster Photo

This is a great area and is nicely Bohemian and worn in. I'd say it is comfortable and ramshackle. It is without the many false airs and graces which town planners and archtitects often, but not always, come up with. In some ways it reminded me of the Upper Cuba Street area in Wellington, New Zealand. There's a whole bunch of clever people here with shops and businesses that are firmly individualistic. I always like to see that. I reckon it's good for people. This area is certainly not bland. It lends itself to postering and there's a lot of it - bright colours in the street.

Vermont & New Hampshire Poster Run

During the week of September 14th to the 18th 2009 I travelled from Lambertville, New Jersey to Lebanon, New Hampshire. This also took me through New York State and Massachussetts. Possibly Connecticut as well. The drive is about 320 miles. I stopped at various stages and usually at gas stations and always at Starbucks. I delighted in placing Poem Posters by New Zealand Poets at these locations. I was always well received. The funny thing about it is that if you go in with a Poem Poster, then people will always talk to you. They are always friendly. There's a heck of a lesson in that.

Our scouts have secured this nice site for your street poster viewing pleasure on Victoria Street West, between Albert Street and Federal Street.

Just metres from the sky tower, on the well travelled route between Queen Street and Sky City, this site is simply the best exposure for your money in one of Auckland's top locations.

Poster Run: Lambertville, New Jersey, USA.

I arrived in New Jersey about three weeks ago. I am living in a town called Lambertville which is about fifty miles from New York City. New Jersey has about nine million residents on .0015% the land size of Siberia. On the other side of the Delaware River, five minutes walk away, is Philadelphia. In this state it is illegal to talk on a cellphone whilst driving, but motorcyclists don't have to wear a helmet. Watsup with that?

The Montmartre Phantom Poster-poems Run

The guy who put these posters up asked me not to identify him for fear of being thrown out of the venerable Republic. Postering in Paris is heavily controlled, even in the areas called by names as various as "multi-cultural", "hotspots" and "crime zones" postering aint easy if you don't get it done on the special kiosks (some of them are even rotating). In fact, it's those areas that are policed more than others. And there are police. And... they are no nicer than anywhere else. Yeah well...

Knoxville, Tennesee Poster Run

Jim Wilson here, I own Phantom Billstickers.

On Monday August 17th my friend George and I set off to do a poster run in Knoxville, Tennessee.

The significance of the date of this run is that it was 32 years and one day after Elvis Presley died.

I always remember what Elvis said about Memphis, Tennessee, he said: "They asked me what I missed about Memphis, and I said 'everything' " He must have said that when he was in the army or on tour. I love Tennessee. I love many things about it and particularly the music.
