Graffiti A New York Hardcover – August 1, 2012

This book ROCKS. No other way to describe it. Extremely interesting information about the writing culture at the time. As this was written in 1978, Seen & Dondi weren't "main" artists yet and certainly not tats crew.Even though writing was strictly known as an NYC phenomena, the Philly game was definitely poppn before this publication.

A time capsule. Beautiful book.

Good stuff.

This book sucks. No other way to describe it! Not at all informative about any main New York artists like SEEN OR DONDI. TATS CRU OR CORTES NYC.

A nice find for my collection.

Llegó en plazo de fechas marcadas, bien protegido, perfecto estado.Otro libro pionero sobre el tema de los graffiti...Totalmente en ingles, tapa dura, buena presentación....Algunas fotos mas de tags históricos que de piezas.

I only can say, this is REALLY an excellent book about the Ol'(True)Skool New York graffiti!! It brings you back to 1973-1978. Sure there is the bible "The Faith of Graffiti" by Norman Mailer and Jon Naar and others like "Graffiti Kings" by Jack Stewart, "Early New York Subway Graffiti 1973-1975" by Keith Baugh and of course "Classic Hits" by Alan Fleisher & Paul Lovino. Graffiti a New York totally fits in this line!!! The story behind this book is very interesting. I quote: Graffiti a New York is a unique editorial project as it this is a re-edition of a book that was never published. In 1978, and just back from the USA, Andrea Nelli graduated in Letters. His thesis was published; the book came out thanks to Lerici, a small publisher from Calabria. A few months later Lerici went bankrupt, Graffiti a New York disappeared from the shelves, lost in the storerooms of small bookshops. So today it's back on the shelves again!! If your interests lay in the origins of todays graffiti, I can highly recommend this book!! With never seen before photo's of Masters like Coco 144, Junior 161, Snake 1, Joe 182, Lee 163d, Flint 707 and many more. The book is also printed on beautiful paper. Thank you very much Mr. Nelli!!

molto istruttivo e al livello di cultura eccelente lo consiglierei a tutti i miei amici e non, ne ho comprati 2 x un regalo ad un amico americano
