Monday, Jun 6, 2022 - Posted by Rich Miller * I saw this expressway sign the other day and asked former Senate President John Cullerton how he came up with the design. He said it’s a copy of a Parky Cullerton billboard from 1957 which “won a number of awards”…

The roof would probably fall in on this design if you had a short name like, say, Chris Bos.

Got some palm cards and window stickers for Parky with that design in my basement with other political stuff. Reminds me, village junk day is coming up soon, gotta head down to the basement.

This billboard has been staring into my soul the last week and I just assumed it was put up my somebody with no affiliation to Cullerton or the campaign.
