Two hoardings. The upper one is covered with dirt, and presumably the rain and wind are responsible. Yet the lower one is clean. How come? Is someone giving it a regular wash, or is the material used non-sticky?

  IIRC the ET poster was originally in that light dust color. Maybe cause the newspaper is also light pink in color.

    No, if you look carefully, you’ll see it’s sprinkled with dirt. It’s not a uniform colour.

      I checked it up again, this time by examining it in the shine of the lights above it. It is not dirt, but it is printed like that only I guess.

  Probably the Bigger hoarding is acting like a shelter to the smaller one :)

  I dunno about the material…but my fav. grouch. The ET campaign sucks like big hell.
  
  “I never thought I’d find my voice’ is the voice of a loser and it is horrible to think that ET would be a part of such a voice. Any intelligent editor would have seen the point and changed it to “I always thought I’d find my voice” and the ad would have been so much better.
  
  But then this is the times group. One cant expect too much!
