GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (AP) – Another stenciled image of former President Gerald R. Ford has popped up in his hometown of Grand Rapids.

MLive.com reports the image of Ford in a swimsuit and towel was spotted recently on a river wall below the DeVos Place convention center. The graffiti just above the water line of the Grand River is similar to a photo of the 38th commander in chief taken at the White House pool.

The image is across the river from the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Museum. Ford’s grave is on the grounds of the museum.

Several other stenciled Ford images were noticed last month along Interstate 196 in the West Michigan city. The freeway bears Ford’s name.
