No because the leaves probably won't be readable but you will "know" it is there. I think it is a lovely way to encourage individuals and companies to subsidise public art.... which while it is important is always a tricky area of hard pressed councils. My sister paid to write her name in the lead used to repair the roof of Salisbury Cathedral. Noone will see the names of the benefactors until they have to reroof again - hopefully many years hence.
