Two digital images: Light pole on north side of First St. between Washington and Bloomfield Streets outside Shannon Lounge with Burczy posters, Hoboken, 1995 & 2005. Photograph by Robert Burczy. Archived on disk.
1995 view looking northwest with facade of Shannon Lounge in background.
2005 view lookin southwest of same pole with City Hall at the left and the southwest corner of Bloomfield and First Sts. at the right.
Statement made in 2006 by Burczy about these photos: It started to dawn on me that since I got pretty good at the hangs, I better start documenting what I was doing. Not only was I trying to get arrested, but I was standing around longer at each spot just to photograph what I had done. Some of the poles on 14th Street were the best. Not only were they not cleaning off any 'Burczy' posters, but it allowed me to totally take them over - covering them from top to bottom.
Reproduction were used in the exhibition, The Poster Art of Robert Burczy, in the Upper Gallery, Hoboken Historical Museum, May 7 to July 1, 2006 (was scheduled to end June 11, but it was extended.)
