The NBA basketball team Boston Celtics are a Boston institution. They play their home games at the TD Garden in the West End neighborhood of Boston. This paintbox is located across the street from the TD Garden and naturally it pays homage to the Celtics.

The front has the well known Celtics logo.

The NBA website describes this logo as -

"The world-famous figure has his left eye winking at you, his left hand resting on his shillelagh, his right index finger is pointing straight upward with a brown basketball sitting atop, his left foot crossed over and to the side of the right foot, he possesses a big smile (with a pipe projecting from the right corner of his mouth) and he is dressed in black buckle shoes, black pants, a gold front-button vest with a matching bow tie (with green three-leaf clovers displayed prominently in view on both), a long-sleeved white shirt and all topped off with a black derby hat with the same matching three-leaf clovers."

The word BOSTON occupies the left side and CELTICS the right side of the paintbox. The back is shielded from public view by a building. It has the word BOSTON on a white background being held up by a fan.
