This one was delivered but I think it is Damien Jones.

I also have a cool picture.

Correction: not the Enmore-Newtown-Darlinghurst district, but the Enmore-Newtown-Erskineville district.

There is a bunch of smiths in my Flickr set http://www.flickr.com/photos/newtown_grafitti/4424536540/in/set-72157623733448735/

There are similarities in style to the Damien series but nothing to specifically indicate they are all by the same person. All these were seen in the Enmore-Newtown-Darlinghurst district over the last few months.They are geolocated so click on the map link to see where each one is. There are far more smiths about but I stopped collecting them after they became repetitive.

In a couple of cases a Smith and a Damien were glued next to one another.

It sounds as if our sculptures were similar, and the letters too. I live quite a way away from Darlinghurst and have no Darlinghurst – or Gay scene – connections I can think of offhand. I did phone the police, but they were remarkably uninterested. I wonder if we’re teh only two recipients.

My sculpture was incredibly explicit. At first I thought gay-hater but the other plaques seem to be about the IM’s concern for the underdogs. I did take it to the police as there were some threatening kinds of messages, but they thought I was having them on. Do call the police as I think it’s getting weird for a few of us and someone should keep a tab.

It’s akind of hard to pursue this conversation in public like this, but – um – were you creeped out? That is, both my letter and my sculpture had a fair amount of sexual explicitness and until I made the connection with this web site I was very uneasy. My partner wanted me to call the police.

My sculpture appeared delivered to my door, the letter some weeks later, and I had never heard of the website, so my name was obtained elsewhere. There are a couple of plaques near my home though.

@matt Not my full address, but usually I comment with a website and my full name, and it wouldn’t be hard to get my full details from that.
