Oh, wait, no, it is just a color Xerox of an illustration our buddy R. Kikuo did for this article in the Times Sunday Magazine.
Spotted at Zerns.

Black Xerox on light blue paper with transparent process cyan over the top, man am I excited about this look.
Printed ephemera from up and down the East Coast.
My initial reaction to the demise of parking meters was negative (partially nostalgia for the loss of another civic mechanism, like the subway token or the pay phone, partially a practical consideration because now there is a lot less bike parking in the city), but I have grown to like the accumulation of these things on my dashboard. I like physical reminders of my travels and these have become domestic passport stamps of sorts. And I’m into the interaction with other parkers that these things inspire. Two of these came off of people’s dashboards who were leaving before their time was up and offered them to me as I walked to the pay-kiosk. The Phila one had like an hour left, so I offered to give the guy a dollar or two. He refused and just told me to “pay it forward.”
