Johnny Cash had a storied connection with London. It was the hometown of his longtime manager, Saul Holiff, and Cash famously proposed to June Carter during a 1968 performance at the London Gardens. Now, the music legend known as the Man in Black looks set to be immortalized with a mural on the side of Budweiser Gardens. It will be formally unveiled on Tuesday. All photos by LFP’s Mike Hensen:

Nice, can't wait to see it complete! I went past when they were just starting earlier this week and was wondering what it was. Cool to see an all time great on a mural here.
