Another of my โpostage stampโ Toronto series; I decided my sparkly red foil was perfect to pay homage to the late, lamented Honest Edโs sign. There was no place like that place anyplace. #toronto #asmr #art #yyz #torontolife #torontoartist #honesteds #stamp #stampcollection #postagestamp #artist
BW photo. We're looking at the interior of a discount store, but not just any discount store - this one was owned by Ed Mirvish, who also owned a theatre. So while on the table in front of us are numerous tragic-looking cheap plaster busts of Elivs, on the wall in the background are GIGANTIC framed photos of Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin, blown up from autographed 8 * 10s I would guess. There are many smaller frames with cartoons in them, with a label, ' "CARRICATURES" of "HONEST ED MIRVISH" ', and at the very far left, a blown up poster of Ed himself, in raincoat and hat carrying an umvrella. A hand-lettered sign hangs from the ceiling "LARGE DOGS $29.99" in a lettering style typical of Ed's. Standing between Frank and Dean is Conner, to give a sense of scale.

Every time I went to a show at Lee's Palace, I went early enough to visit #HonestEds, especially in the winter so I could buy a toque. Doing otherwise was not up for discussion.
Continuing highlights of my street photos in advance of a new series starting Monday. The last days of Honest Ed's.
