Here's another photo from the backyard of Baltimore's favorite grumpy man. This is a tile that is embedded into a brick wall dividing Mencken's row house from its neighbor. A long brick wall is kind of boring on its own, and Mencken's brick wall was more interesting than most - just like Mencken himself was a very interesting character.
