South Philly Style
Like I said in earlier posts my brother Marc was visiting this week in Philly, so all three Manley brothers were once again united. Marc is shooting pics of my other brother Dave and his band, so we went to South Philly to pick up some more film for his camera after we had a nice lunch with John (Major Bummer, BPRD) Arcudi who also lives in Philly. It was a great day so I snapped some picks while driving along in the most colorful part of the city, South Philly, along Washington Ave where the South philly Italian Market meets and blends into East and Southwest with a large asian community, mostly Vietnamese (one of the largest communities in the US), Mexicans and central Americans too. A mexican resturant one corner, the next Vietnamese or Italian. A great place to visit and eat!
That sign was on the back wall of an empty stall in the Italian Market. It was posted on the wall, I guess to let all the new immigrants or liberals know where to stick it?
ReplyDeleteI didn't notice the sign till I downloaded the pics off of my camera when I retuned home. This was enlarged from the pic and clipped, that's why the detail is a bit fuzzy, it's blown up several hundred precent.
I think Year One is Miller at his best, except for making Catwoman a whore. That I think sucks eggs. He's a great storyteller specially when working with such a good artist.
