BOLO: Crying Velvet Elvis from MOBA/Somerville Theatre

[josephineave.livejournal.com]

As the 2nd in my continuing series documenting art theft in the Greater Davis Square area, I bring you today a heartbreaking theft from the Museum of Bad Art.

From their Facebook page:

ANOTHER THEFT AT MOBA!

This piece has been stolen from the MOBA gallery in the Somerville Theatre. It was on display for informational purposes only, as we do not include paintings on velvet in the collection. This is the second theft this year; it's getting annoying. If you are the selfish lout who took it, or have information about the piece's whereabouts, please contact: curator@museumofbadart.org.

Here's an article about the 3 thefts this year, 2 in Somerville and 1 in Dedham. There are photos of the "art works".

(and the joke would be they were stolen by an art lover).
