Del Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 I remember seeing very faded No Parasan graffiti in Mile End in the late 70s and asking my Dad what it meant. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Telford Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 There was a witty one on a bridge I saw, years ago, the original saying 'Read the Daily Worker', then someone had painted a 'D' before 'Read'. On a wall on the way into Scunthorpe, someone once painted the Typhoo-Tea joke insulting the town ! ( Can't put it on here, ask someone else !)

Mad McCann Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Out of period but worth recalling. In the mid-late 1980's Glasgow, there was hardly a wall between Candleriigs and Bridgeton cross that didn't have 'AL JOLSON' sprayed on it. :-) In 1977 in East Kilbride, I saw a bit of underpass graffiti paraphrasing a TV ad popular at the time; "TOIKIN YA BASS 1981 - SIMPLY YEARS AHEAD". No Idea who Toikin was but he sure wasn't a hobbit! Dave. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
