That interview was pure comedy, JA is funny

Great find sleptembers, thanks for sharing! And i'm loving the Hondo flick, isn't that from the 1973 New York Magazine "Taki Awards" article?

Scanned the back of this truly great book:

Guys, i just bought this book called "The Birth Of Graffiti" by Jon Naar: It's an absolute MUST HAVE!!! It contains rare and unpublished pictures from 1973 by the maker of "The faith of Graffiti"/"Watching My Name Go By". If you can get your hands on it get it because it's your money well spend!

BUMP

TAKI 183 still up after all these years dope letters...

I agree. Skeme was a genius but stayed humble and true to himself... unlike some cats nowadays who shout that they are a 'Living Legend' or a 'KING'....

There isn't a lot of stuff of his work...:o But Skeme definatly deserves a thread - the guy was ahead of his time.

Cornbread started writing in 1967 and is considered the first real "bomber" ever. He tagged on an elephant(!) and wrote on an airplane(!). Check out this interview: Movie trailer about a film on Cornbread:
