There's even a charming local cooperative bookstore on this street. Or maybe not so charming. Here's what its side wall looks like:
A closer look:
(Click on the image for an even closer, much more detailed shot. The image, which I find offensive, is actually very well drawn.)

Paul: Thanks for the info. The drawing style reminds me of Mad Magazine illustrations in the Basil Wolverton tradition.
Shane: There is an obvious double entendre on the phrase "Black Hawk Down," which is painted across her face. Generally, I appreciate harsh caricatures of powerful people. But I don't think writing the word "Black" on the image of a black person's face is at all acceptable, and the word "down" in this context connotes death.
The link Paul put up no longer takes me to the Rice image, so I can't check, but I believe the original poster didn't have that writing.
Also: Conal's drawing reminds me of the work of Drew & Josh Friedman.
I thought Friedmans immediately, though it would be a departure from ironic portrayals of fringe celebs and lounge culture.
I'm going to dig out my copy of Warts and All (an aptly named tome!).
