  1. Can anyone decipher anything on this recently revealed ghost sign at 83 Dalston Lane, London E8.

    Photo is cropped from the original shared with me by the publisher of our London ghost signs book, Max Leonard at Isola Press (isolapress.com). He's got one word/layer having 'SANITATION' but nothing more than that...

  3. Married to Comics is showing today at 3pm at The Rio in Dalston, London: riocinema.org.uk/movie/married.

    The film profiles biographical comic luminaries Justin Green (also a sign painter) and Carol Tyler, with contributions from artists including Robert Crumb and Art Spiegelman.

    There is also an opportunity to see the film at the Woodstock Museum Film Festival in New York on 31 August.

    Boosts appreciated 😃

  4. I'm excited to share that I've helped line up the European premiere of Married to Comics in London on Monday, 26 August: riocinema.org.uk/movie/married.

    I'll be sharing more about this in next week's worldwide events roundup email (sign up for free at bl.ag/join) but also wanted to get word out on here.

    I'll post the tralier and other screenings in the next post, and would appreciate boosts, especially from London/UK folk.

  6. Food is one of the main actors of this not-long-enough holiday season.
    Which is not even truly an holiday for everyone, but this is a topic for another post.

    So, food, yes, we're probably talking about it and seeing a lot of it over these days.
    Or maybe not enough.
    Or we don't really care about it because there are worse problems like the racist transphobic families some are forced to visit. Or the lack of them.

    Anyway, we thought it was a good time to shove more food discussion on your feed, but, hopefully, a more wholesome version of it which also talks a bit more about how the DSC does whatever it is that it does.

    Welcome the new entry on our blog!

    Feedback welcome if you want to.
    Or not.
    It's okay anyway.
