INTERESTING IMAGES OF DEFACED U.S. PAPER MONEY

The "Boing Boing" blog is a popular source of offbeat items, and this week the blog noted an interesting collection of images over on the Flickr site (the same site we use to host E-Sylum images). -Editor
Facial Hair Hamilton "Flickr's Joe D! has a laugh-out-loud set of 75 "refaced" US bank-notes, in which the various dead presidents are reinvented as a series of ever-funnier defacements."

"i'm surprised how much everyone likes this. it's just something i've been toying around with every now and then, it all started when i would draw Spartan Jackson To read the original Boing Boing article, see: Hilarious money doodles glasses or beards on money with the counterfeit pen on the registers at work and just grew in to a hobby. also, keep in mind that a lot of these were taken with camera phones or in low lighting moments before i had to spend them (i'm a poor college student, of course i spent them, i can't afford to keep a collection of twenties somewhere)."
