Closing Bell: Brooklyn Bucks
The PLG Blog PLOG published a few images (one is above) of a “local currency” they printed up and tried to use at the local ArtMart.

The PLG Blog PLOG published a few images (one is above) of a “local currency” they printed up and tried to use at the local ArtMart. These PLG Bucks were an experiment in community-based money, and while not very successful, the money does look pretty great. That’s longtime resident Bob Marvin featured on the bill, looking very presidential indeed.
actually, I looked it up and the motto means Nature is the mistress of art,
but a good mistress can teach you a thing or two.
I want a copy of that, Bob! It can have a place of honor next to the portrait of Montrose Morris in the all knowing turban 🙂
“Nature is the teacher of art.”
IIRC the original PLG bucks, at ArtMart last Fall, were a bit more amateurish , hand scrawled by children. These look a lot better, especially the single, which IMO looks very handsome indeed, although had I realized what Mr.PLOG was taking my picture for the other day I’d have worn something more formal than my running sweats (and tried to look dead) 🙂
what’s the latin motto mean? “nature rules art?”
Go Bob!!!!
Very cool. We often fantasize about doing a local scrip in Red Hook.

Ah, Bob Bucks!
Great fundraising idea!
