  NOTESHOE: DULY NOTED
An abandoned shoe that appears to have served double duty as a notebook (noteshoe?) for names & phone numbers:
 
  PAINT MY LIPS!
Painting of lips. Oil on canvas. Anonymous. Left feet in picture to give idea of size (approx 16x20):
 
  THE PHO CALL TO NAM
Vietnam prepaid phone card found on sidewalk. Reason I included this one is because I think it's a Vietnamese pun: "Pho" is a kind of noodle soup, as seen in the picture; "The Pho" (I think) is supposed to sound like "telephone." Or something like that:
 
  CUDDLY POOP & ELMO
Mr Hankey the Christmas Poo doll, complete with his official South Park documentation. And, just like the character he's based on in the show, this doll was found in the gutter, all wet & covered with slime. Yucko:
 
 
Elmo beanie baby. About 4" tall:

  CRIME SCENES
A couple of "crime scene" photos. Perpetrators probably smashed car windows, stole purses, removed credit cards, cash & drugs from the purses, then tossed unwanted remains onto sidewalk (makeup, tampons, Q-Tips, etc.):

  PLEASE HUG ME PLEASE
One of my favorites. A home-made, very weird doll:
 
  EDUCATIONAL ACTION FIGURES
Rather large, rubbery dinosaur doll. Interestingly, he's been designed with a hole on his tail near his rump to expose the underlying bone structure. Why they chose his rear end is beyond me:
 
 
Construction worker action figure, complete with lunchbox:
 
  SHELLS 'N' SLUGS
Spent bullet casings, found on sidewalk. Two 9mm shells and a 22 caliber:
 
 
Three slugs (as in spent bullets), found on sidewalk. Very large caliber. BIC pen to give idea of size:
 
Abandoned photographs, broken toys, electronic parts, discarded paintings, bullet casings, rusted metal, splattered food and other detrius I find in the streets of Philadelphia. This blog is associated with The Abandoned Photo Museum at www.heudnsk.com. CLICK THUMBNAILS AT LEFT TO ENLARGE!
