Posse Spotting: Depot for Creative Reuse
We love the East Bay Depot for Creative Reuse. We think the Posse did good on this one, as Jon is really committed to reusing materials too.
The East Bay Depot for Creative Reuse is an ecological treasure trove of art & craft materials, educational supplies, vintage furniture, home décor, paper goods, fabric, and much more. Founded in 1979 by two Oakland public school teachers, the Depot promotes solid waste diversion and resource conservation through the Depot store and environmental education programs.
In early Fall, we found the above Posse sticker in the company of Rock Hudson, a shout out to heavy metal and a merry assortment of sliced tomato and pepper magnets. When we returned this week, Jon had been joined by Alfred E. Neuman, Dead Eyes, the alphabet and some really GOOD NEWS. I got this picture, and Greta got 5 vintage patterns, 1 broken candle, the tiniest bath tub you ever did see and a clear Christmas ornament, all for $1.81. If you’re in the Temescal neighborhood of Oakland, CA, they’ve got a ton of new hardcover Upper Playground art books for only $2.50 each.
Posse Spotting: Harajuku, Tokyo, Japan
The Posse hit up the Vivienne Westwood shop in Harajuku. Look to the right of the Union Jack. Or go southeast of the Sexy Dynamite sign. Whatever works for you.
Posse Spotting: Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan
Tokyu Security is no match for the Posse! Nice triple-play of Maneki Neko.
Posse Spotting: Miami Design District
The posse struck in Miami’s Wynwood area, where thanks to the interest of hip local galleries and walls and walls of outdoor murals sponsored by Deitch Projects (and sidenote: Jeffrey Deitch just named director of MOCA!), street art abounds. Very cool to see the posse stickers hobnobbing with the project’s biggest influencers, Shepard and Andre. Closeups after the jump.
Posse Spotting: Eindhoven, Holland
Spotted at a a hardcore/punk CD stand at the Persistence Festival in Eindhoven, Holland. This is the pattern we’ve seen before here and also as a cat-friendly tablecloth during Jon’s American Summer. Fashionable scarves and punk rock vending, it’s all posse-approved.
Posse Spotting: Amsterdam
I’m stoked whenever anybody from the posse checks in from somewhere in the world, but these photos really made me laugh. Stickerbombing the CSI is just utter brilliance. Oh, it should probably be said that such stickering is not a direct endorsement of any illicit or subversive practices from, ahem, on high. That disclaimer aside, the official Doodlesplatter position is that some substances that are illegal are actually less harmless than those which can be bought at the corner store. Thanks to a posse member who was passing through Schiphol.
Posse Spotting: South Coast, England
The posse is always on the move, and when we’re not riding the rails in Russia, we need some good wheels of our own. These two South Coast skate/BMX shops endorse the posse, and we endorse them right back. Bored of South Coast (above) features a 2D JB as their much cooler version of a Walmart greeter. And ESP put Jon up on their special message board. What’s poppin’ indeed! Click through and spot the posse. Cheers Bored, ESP and Posse Anon!
Posse Spotting: Tilburg, Netherlands
Emo the rabbit is the first animal to officially join our posse. (Well, second, technically, to Bailey who lives at Posse HQ.) Emo is a black beauty with one ear down. She lives in the Netherlands with Jeps and Evelien, who play music as Darker. Regarding Emo, they write: “She loves carrots and JB’s art (we know as she still hasn’t eaten the artwork).” Incidentally, it’s not just the rabbit who knows how to trick out her crib: Jeps and Evelien have a GREAT collection of framed art and toys by Jon. Thanks J&E!
Posse Spotting: Lil Daredevil
You’re never too young to join the posse. Spotted on Adele Prince’s Flickr.
Posse Spotting: Helsinki, Finland
Evidence of the posse has surfaced in Helsinki, Finland. Nice juxtapositions with Pablo Picasso and Doug Stanhope! I’m winging it with Google Translation on this one for our Finnish friend: Taide on kaikkialla!
