Collaboration Moustache Detail

It appears the two most active subway ad defacers we cover have collaborated on a piece. Intentional or not, RAD’s Lego head and Moustache Man’s cursive mustache are a match made in heaven.

This one appears the work of Poster Boy, or at least someone part of his movement. It certainly wouldn’t be the first time he has targeted a MoMa advertisement. Thanks to Halston for the tip!

Due to budget cuts the MTA is now hiring depressed internet junky teens to make their signs.

Some upstanding citizen has taken it upon themselves to draw these adorable little ‘staches on ads all across the subway system. We call him or her the Moustache Madcap. Judging by how many of these we’ve seen so far, you will see plenty more on Subway Art Blog in the near future. Send your photos in!
