well what can i say.this book is dope.from start to finish it keeps the reader interrested.the interviews with some of new yorks king and pioneers of graffiti are well detailed with out dragging on.
the pictures are great even thoo some of them are over 30 years old.
this book is a trip back in time.
also i loved the fact that there was plenty of text.alot of graffiti books try to avoid this or just dont have much text.
this is part of the reason the book got 5 stars.for me i really like reading.so having alot of text is just a added bonus.
if you enjoyed books like dondi,t-kid,fuzz,hip hop files,then get this book.
my only gripe is that i didnt spring for the limited edtion…
oh and its pretty thick too,so lots of pictures,lots of text.
a great all round graff book,from the early graff times in new york city!

Anyone out there with experience in art/graffiti?
I just picked up a passion to begin drawing and creating art. This interest started with just writing graffiti, Graffiti Art CArtoons Graffiti Artists but id like to draw more than letters, i want to start making characters and abstract people/things such as idk a cartoon character behind a turntable or something. as many tags have. do you artists out there have any advice or guidance on where i could go or what i could do to learn such things?Thanks!

    Let me just start off by saying this book is OFF THE HOOK! This book is up there with Subway Art, Dondi White and Freight Train Graffiti. This is a book written by real artist that influenced the graff game at a whole other level. I was lucky enough in my youth to have met Todd “Reas” James and he was one of the coolest writers I ever met. He gave me outlines and would just kick it with me even though I was new to the scene. His style is still seen today in so many writers doing their thing today. The interviews in this book are amazing! The photos are clear and I like how they show the writers at that time and what influenced them. For anyone a fan of graffiti or any new writers looking to get schooled this is a must have.
