CLEVELAND BRANDING CAMPAIGN OR NOT?

I think HEK went to trial in January 09.  However, I was unable to attend.   This work is on the RR overpass over E42 or E41st near St Clair.   Would you rather see this or an expensive Cleveland+ banner touting "We've Got It All Together"?

I remember seeing this a year ago, or so -- it had a little more color. Why the wear patterns? Attempted cleansing?

Thought it was curious, because it doesn't look at all like most HEK, and because I'm pretty sure Knot is another tagger, (not that HEK is necessarily just one...) Collaboration? Who's DBT?

Overpass; passed over.
Post no bills? No! Post no billboards.
We are posterchildren,
and my privatized eyes sore.

I wonder if we could make a directory of legal, hired graffiti. What businesses and people have supported and provided a legitimate outlet for these artists?
