Dear Mr. Hotshot,
I know you have amassed a huge collection of beautifully composed photographs of most (if not all) faded ads in Brooklyn and beyond. However, I can’t help being visually struck by these relics and instantly thinking of you. So, a hotshot like you probably already has snapped this one but if not, here ya go. (Taken somewhere around Fulton and Hicks).
Cheers,
Erin, The Pige

Thanks for thinking of me Erin!
