In the context of the appearance in 2021 of another street art celebration including Hull's own guitar hero (see Image) this earlier example pre-dates it by some two years. It is on the gable end of the Greenwich Avenue shops, Bilton Grange, close to the area where Ronson grew up. The work was created by local artist Lydia Caprani and aerosol artists Spray Creatives, and was funded by arts organisation Back to Ours and Hull City Council. Nor is Mick Ronson short of tributes in his birthplace; existing and former examples include: Image, Image and Image
