@ Sabrina…yeah, also as a STLer, I recall that shock and confusion over those billboards. Good god, we thought…what were they gonna do next, sell Anheuser-Busch to some foreign company??!!

BTW, the new electronic billboards are interesting. Saw one yesterday for a new radio station that told me what song they were playing at that moment. Of course, I turned to the station!!

Another unique style is the linear zoetrope, used here in the Atlanta rapid transit tunnel. A series of pictures on the wall outside the train appears to create a movie for the riders passing by. The story is at the spodek.net web page.

Very cool effect.

These are all excellent and probably very effective, not so the Late January 2007 campaign of electronic light boards in Boston that sparked bomb scares.

Any STL Cardinals fan living in St. Louis should remember when the cardinals were “stolen” from the billboards. It was literally a white billboard with the cardinal-sitting-on-a-bat logo, and suddenly it looked as though they were ripped violently from the background “Where’d the cardinals go?” was a question we heard all week. A week or two later they appeared stuck up on a billboard advertising a radio station, which would now be broadcasting the games, and all it says was “The cardinals have moved.” It was clever, and had everyone discussing conspiracy therories and so on!

Dole had Curious George stickers on the bananas when the movie came out.
