Jim Wilson of Phantom Billstickers sadly passed away last week. From humble beginnings (“we started out with a photocopier and a dream”), Jim built New Zealand’s largest street postering company.
He visited us in Glasgow in the early 90s , when the street postering landscape was very different to what it is today, and eagerly joined a posting run, fully aware he might get arrested—something that only added to his excitement. We shared a memorable day with him.
Jim was a passionate supporter of the arts and a firm believer in the power of paper and paste. A beautiful soul, he will be deeply missed. Our condolences go to his wife, family, and everyone at Phantom.
