Stencil graffiti in the Southside of Birmingham.  This is another one of my favorites.  Yoko Ono had a famous piece titled "Ceiling Painting" that was part of an exhibit in London in 1966.  Visitors were asked to climb a ladder leading to a magnifying glass dangling from the ceiling and find the word "Yes" written.  Ono first met John Lennon at this exhibit.
