I had wanted to make Brother Mouzone a library card ever since I heard his quote in “The Wire”, but when I searched on an assignment that would fit, I couldn’t find one so I made one.
Brother Mouzone has come to Baltimore from New York City, so it figures he has a New York Public Library card, not one from Baltimore. I like that this image I captured from the NYC library website has a bar code on the back of the card, which is a modern tech thing for a library card, and probably not what Mouzone’s library card had a decade ago when “The Wire” was filmed.
He’s the most dangerous thing in America. He’s got a library card.
This was a really cool idea! I remember him saying that but you bringing it to life was a cool thing! Great work!
