NPA graphics designer flip flops on Sullivan

Either Sam Sullivan can't decide which way to part his hair, or whoever designed the NPA's communications materials is a perfectionist.

Careful observers will notice Real Life Sam, left, here pictured during a 24 hours editorial board interview last week, prefers a right-side part while Promo Shot Sam, right, parts from the left. The surefire clue the photo's been flipped? Check out the wee dogwood flower pin that Real Life Sam wears on his left lapel. As the helpful circles indicate, Promo Shot Sam likes it on the other side.

Promo Shot Sam has been featured prominently on all NPA campaign literature, billboard ads throughout the city, as well as the NPA website.
