Default Acceptable Graffiti
If you ever drive around Liverpool you may catch some Graffiti which has been stencilled on phone boxes and other street furniture. I do actually like some of what I see but it does at times disappear as quickly as it appears but I did catch this one early this morning which I think is a little history lesson in itself and can prompt people to think of past conflict.

Sion Missione is not the Dutch folk band but a Liverpool T Shirt company

This is on the corner of Lance Lane/ Childwall Valley Rd - Wavertree High St. With the old Abbey Cinema in the background

Paul,

Looks very well done.

Paul I've passed that a few times, but never got a chance to snap it.
Looks good.
Tony.

Tony,
A bit safer at 0630 stood in the middle of the road, there is another by the Wellington pub further down for the Somme I think but with a history of Samuri's flying around definitely not safe there

After reading this thread I thought I would take a few photos of our Belfast Graffiti and share them with you. Hope you like them,
Eddie

They are a bit different to what I remember. Some stunning tributes there

Paul,
These have evolved a lot over the years so I did try to select the most appropriate murals for the forum .

Eddie,

Interesting to see the badge of The Kings Liverpools in two of the murals.
