This is the home of the ghostsigns project, a collaborative national effort to photograph, research and archive the remaining examples of hand painted wall advertising in the UK and Ireland. Here is a little bit of background and, if you find it interesting, keep in touch. Photographers and researchers wishing to get involved.

Great pic! that works on all levels, I especially like the rusted corrugated iron and the unevenness of the panels

Don't know if this counts, look closely .....

If you have the visual acuity to pick anything out of that wee photograph, I don't think you need be worrying about your eyesight.
