Poster #179: Seaside Heights, NJ, USA


Corey writes: " It would do Mr. Dilkington well to visit this place. Not only is it a lovely little resort town with some great beaches (where I'm sure he would have fun sitting in the sand, bothering the crabs), but there's also a lot of weird stuff an' that. Case in point-- walking home from the boardwalk after putting up the poster, I saw a guy gardening with a chainsaw.
True story."

Poster #174: Honolulu, HI, USA


Devin from Honolulu writes:

"It's official. The phenomenon has come full circle - through the
pacific ocean. This might probably be as far away from England as it
gets. Nowhere more remote, thats for sure. However, we must not forget
what this innocuous poster represents...

-- no matter where you go in the world, across oceans and through
cultures, there are people who, not only share Karl's values and
ideals, but care enough to go out and proudly spread the message just
for one last 30 minutes of escaping our hectic everyday lives, and
reveling in the charming simplicity that is Karl's mind.

It is a beautiful irony that Karl's outlook on life may not be as crazy
as it seems when compared to some of the insanity that is ever present
in all of our lives around the world; and that's why we all love
listening to him.

This is my tribute to the most unprecedented, widespread, cultural icon
of this generation whose fame is global and is based solely the shape
of his head."

Well said. If I were Karl, I'd cry after reading that. This poster is very far from the other posters. Could it actually be the loneliest Karl in the world? That makes me a little sad too.

David from SF wrote: "I put up 10 posters total on the front and back of five light poles, so people can see Karl's bald Manc head greeting them or wishing farewell at the end of the day."

Poster #159: Decatur, GA, USA



John from Decatur writes: "The poster is located at a small community park outside Atlanta … the ball-playing youths no doubt confused now by two round objects on the pitch (three, counting the sunflower).

Also, last Halloween I used a simple Karl cutout guide to carve our pumpkins. Naturally, the head fits perfectly on the orange surface."

Poster #135: Emeryville, CA, USA


Rick has made an effort. He writes: "This is the fine art publishing company where we work. The windows are 44" x 60" and wrap around the entire building. The view below is what you can see when posters don't obscure the view. That is: our building can be seen by most major Bay Area commute traffic."

Poster #124: University of Washington, USA


Alex writes: "This picture was taken outside the School of Art at the University of Washington. There are Cherry Blossoms in the back. They only bloom once a year. Didn't Karl only like art in school? Also I posted the poster on a cafe billboard. Doesn't Karl always hang out at cafes."
