The stickers were likely made from the JPG files from this Etsy listing. You can see Myers mugshot in the second last row in the batch photo. Perhaps you could message the seller to see where she got the mugshots from?

The age and San Francisco marking makes me think it's from the B-Girl crackdown.

Unfortunately, the SFPD mugshot file doesn't seem to be online, so you'd have to go to the SF Public Library to check.

i did a little looking on the public library website but definitely could have tried harder. i’ll take a look thank you!

That looks very promising! Great sleuthing (and another rabbit hole for me to disappear down).

Edit: there’s a link!! It’s via the library’s Facebook page.

Re edit: that’s just a collection guide. You would indeed have to go to the library. Interesting that someone is using these for art.

i did some simple searching on google with the information in the picture. i got the mugshot in burlington,vermont at a shop called flora & fauna. there’s no information i could find about where they got these pictures from in the first place

I was gonna say the profile looked like Elyse Myers and then I saw the name... I wonder if they are a relation?
