just got "all city writers" yesterday it's quite an amazing book with so many old photographs.

 

I'm a bit of graff nerd and I pretty much had to have this book.

 

it's gonna take a long time to read it's 450 pages full on ( weighs like 10 pounds)

 

and while there are a lot of pics that the world has seen time and time again some of these pieces are at different angles which is cool to see.

 

the layout is cooool like a newspaper).

interetsing section on photo trading (you can recognise tags on back of photos if you used to trade back in the days).

 

and a cool section on fanzines and things like that.

somebody scanned it in the NYC thread in the brick slayers forum, it was like some dude from the vandal squad talking about the big writers he caught and his personal conversations with them and shit. i think it had white pages with black text and some pictures too, i'm not sure

 

thanks for any help!

For the first time, the history of graffiti in the Parisian Metro. To a colossal, archives of 1984 to the present day, and thanks to knowledge of the discipline and its master, on more than 300 pages, the author, Karim Boukercha work talks with leaders of this mysterious underground scene. More than 500 photos, documents, sketches, articles in newspapers. Testimony of dogs, craftsmen of the RATP inspectors of photographers. A journey into a world unknown and fantasmatic lives dedicated to a prohibited activity which only returns nothing. The book also offers a reflection on art, on the position of the artist, on the understanding the law and interdictions, the implications of the creation, on its place in a life...
