I had a double of the English version and sitting on doubles of the French version. He was pretty next level in the 80-2000's. I remember see him put up a sketch, hell that could have been the piece itself since it was so clean. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I was starting out in the mid-eighties and secured a copy of the Subway Art, then a few years later Spraycan Art, T-Kid was the guy whose work stood out to me and inspired me early on in my "career". His work was and is next-level. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope it’s a good trip! Used to find books and zines at another chain in the Southwest. Place had a similar vibe but more focused on new music/movies/books. name slipped my mind and it’s been bugging me for a week. Finally popped into my geriatric brain: Hastings. I looked them up and they closed sometime in the last decade. Rip Hastings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it the one that @nicklesndimesposts in occasionally? I don’t remember what it was called and nothing came up on a few quick searches. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schnitzel Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 Just finished reading this. dope book about a writer who really sparked a slight interest in unusual graff for me! For Catalogue of Unsolved Crimes, graffiti legend MELLIE recollects dozens of ridiculous, reckless, totally illegal and sometimes hard to believe adventures in Europe’s train yards and metro tunnels. From his early days in hometown Utrecht at the dawn of the 1990s, MELLIE’s spray-painted name drove transportation companies to madness for the better part of a decade. The name of his MSN crew explained the modus operandi succinctly: Maniakken Stoppen Nooit (‘maniacs never stop’). Catalogue of Unsolved Crimes, containing many contemporary photographs of MELLIE’s pieces, is an intimate memoir about bombing, racking, court cases, drugs & alcohol, friendships, travelling, toys, beef, police chases, fame, and anything in between and serves up vicarious thrills a mile a minute. https://hitzerot.com/product/mellie 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schnitzel Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 another book by Hitzerot this time featuring a well known Berlin writer Abis I was stoked to discover he also wrote TEE because I've been following the TEE pieces on IG Right Hand side those pieces are so fucking good! Amazes me how some of these writers have sooooo many panels under their belts. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schnitzel Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Next book also came via Hitzerot but was published by Spray city AT Graffiti Wien Tracing the origins of Vienna graffiti to 1999. Not gone through this 100% yet because it's pretty big but it seems pretty good. What got me into buying the book was some of the photos of the Phase2 and Delta stuff they did. I don't exactly know my NYC history too well but I wonder if Phase2 and Delta Had more running in Vienna in 1984 than they had in NYC. Wiener LOL then details the first trains etc in Vienna and then on and on to 1999 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
