Muggle Marketing
With all the hoopla about the Simpsons movie machine turning 7-Elevens into Kwik-E-Marts, I'm reminded of this bit of Potter marketing at London's Charring Cross Station. The first time I saw it I was running to catch a train when I encountered a crowd of tourists trying to photograph their kids at the famous platform. Fortunately, I was able to make my way through and boarded my train. On my second visit, I could appreciate the humor of this piece of guerilla marketing and even snapped a photo of my daughter wih cart-in-wall.
