Rest In Peace SIRE 365, still running strong on that HS box 15 years later !

Great post, love seeing benching from the boroughs !

Nice to see SUMIT got out !

HIP HOP CHRIS 217, 1984 !! This guy was up bigtime back in the day...

Seriously, I'd love to see somebody find a treasure chest loaded with pics of the Queens lines from that era as well !!

They just keep appearing, incredible, so thankful this guy was out there and preserved the pics...

Oh my goodness, another incredible batch of classic jewels got posted, 85's and 84's...

Always a good monday morning when new jewels showed up on the subway site, 1985's...

Nice classic cleans !

^Nice^ EX-1 up top, OE & P13 always somewhere in the classic pics, they got busy !

Someone should flic that nice Vane rooftop on Congress, saw that last night but no camera on hand unfortunately.

That Rezist is fresh !

Hell yeah, PRO & SON Partners At Large !!

Hell yeah, that's what I vividly remember seeing on so many different lines ! Always loved the faces in the QK's, rip king IZ.

Good eye spotting that MAST outline on the white box (I'm assuming SPRAY was on the left side but couldn't tell with the sun glare in that pic), those are some of the earliest writers to truly rock fr8's steadily, as opposed to just on occasion. They got seriously busy on the steel throughout the late 1980's !

From NYS today, Coney island yard 1972...

Hell yeah great pics, definitely remember seeing Ant, Net & Bones up back in the day ! What lines did they rock the most ?

I remember when I first started seeing Saint getting up, mid 80's from what I recall, he would have marker tags down every single ridge across entire stations on the 7 line !

No doubt about that, VINNY was definitely an all-city king. Years before I even got into the writing culture, my mom would take me on the 7's in Queens, as well as driving thru the Bronx within view of some of the various elevateds, and VINNY was always there. His swirling yet readable letters were always completely recognizable to a youngster like myself, and his colors were often bright and appealing. Later, in 1978, when I was finally introduced to what was going on, VINNY, along with IZ, were considered the 2 kings. Even beyond that, around 1980, VINNY made yet another comeback, and his trademark style was once again being seen rolling throughout the city.

Oh snap, just spotted this on the subway site, october 1977...

This was the banner image when clicking on the subway site this morning. 5 line, 1980...

Beautiful !!

Nice, I remember when they did a wholecar on the white 7's as well, '83 or '84ish...

King IZ !!
