Artist Sophie Blackall has brought to life the infamous missed connections section of Craigslist. While these images tend to concentrate a bit more on the sentimental rather than the raunchy, they are certainly worth checking out. A book of her work will be coming out in September

-m4w – 29 (Lower East Side)
I did a really bad job of trying to introduce myself on the subway. I asked about your white fur hat because I liked it, but then I didn’t know what to say afterward . . . it was on the F train, from 2nd Ave to Jay St. Write me if you don’t mind guys that fumble over their words when they’re nervous.

I fixed the water outside your apt today, you had a problem with your plumbing. I never asked you your name but I thought you were very attractive. Interested? Reply with where you were going and what you were wearing.

We both purchased owl statues today. You are the classy looking dame in a red dress. I am the mustachioed gentleman. I think we should meet up and discuss further wildlife decor.
