Wine by Some Young Punks, an Australian company with a reputation for standout labels
Gut Oggau Estate in Austria worked with Jung von Matt ad agency to develop a character for each wine. Each portrait on the labels has its own name and a story to go with it.
I saw these in the press last August but forgot to post on my blog. Stephen Powers aka the legendary ESPO worked with the Mural Arts Program and a number of local artists in Philadelphia to paint over 30 of these massive text based murals collectively called Love Letter. They are all visible from the elevated train which runs along Market Street. Mr Powers said: 'Hopefully there will be a few sly guys out there who will say to their girl: "Hey Baby, I wrote that up there for you".'
I was in the car with my dad and out of nowhere he said "Yes Bruv! Yes Bruv!" I was slightly confused until he pointed at the number plate on the car in front of us....love it!
David Thorne is an Australian humourist, satirist, Internet personality and author. Thorne gained public recognition when he received media attention for one of his email exchanges, in which he attempts to pay an overdue bill with a drawing of a seven-legged spider. The vehicle for the story spread via email as an image containing the exchange and shortly after people were flocking to his website 27b/6 (http://27bslash6.com/). His website is a collection of various humourous stories and accounts from Thorne's own life. Much of Thorne's humour is autobiographical and self-deprecating, often concerning his immediate family and work associates. (from wikipedia)
