The Mission District, San Francisco

The Mission District
1077 Valencia Street
Ben Eine has shown up in this site before.  This is done in his circus font.
To quote his website:Ben Flynn, a.k.a. EINE, (Born 1970. London, England) shot to international fame when David Cameronpresented one of his works to President Obama as a gift on his first official state visit, but is arguably more famous for ‘Alphabet Street’ – the shutters and murals he painted in his trademark colours and typography in Middlesex Street, London– described by The Times as “a street now internationally recognized as a living piece of art with direct links to The White House.”
This piece has been painted over as of April 2013

    Definitely not the postage stamp. I never thought of street art as having identifiable fonts. Gives it a whole new dimension for me.
