Abracadabra Posted March 12, 2002 Share Posted March 12, 2002 THE DONDI BOOK RULES. BUY IT NOW. IT IS WORTH EVERY PENNY. DONDI IS A LEGEND AND YOU ARE NOT WORTHY. PURCHASE NOW. THE BOOK WILL TAKE OVER YOUR BEING. IF YOU DON'T OWN IT, THEN YOU ARE A WORTHLESS PIECE OF SHIT WHO DESERVES TO GET TRAMPLED IN THE TOKYO SUBWAY. well, got a bit carried away there. but the sentiment is right. the dondi book is a must-have for anyone that writes graffiti. who's your daddy? dondi is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spizazzz Posted March 12, 2002 Share Posted March 12, 2002 the dondi book is tentimes better than the art of getting over, which was really really badly written - interesteing and good flicks, but horribly written. The dondi book is actually written well, has good flicks, and is worth the twenty dollars i spent on it at THe STrand - if there are any ny heads skip barnes and noble....

Ski Mask Posted March 14, 2002 Share Posted March 14, 2002 Originally posted by mapo wc is that the book with the Lee interview? how is it? I really like Lee's trains and want that book just for the interview. if your talking about the classic interview with lee about his wholetrain, then you mean "Getting Up" by Craig Castleman. Its on amazon I think... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest killdsg Posted March 14, 2002 Share Posted March 14, 2002 dondi this book is indescribable. When I read it, the magic that I felt as a 12 year old reading Subway art came back. Pretty much all styles can be traced back to kings like Dondi, they were and are the foundation! Anyway the book was amazing, and Duro, if you are still reading this thread, thanks so much to you guys for bringing it out, it is beyond appreciated. Respect to the king, DONDI R.I.P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrizm Posted March 30, 2002 Share Posted March 30, 2002 getting up by "craig castleman". this is the one with the lee whole train interview. A MUST. Another dope book... Subway Lives by Jim Dwyer. - its short stories on the nyc subway. dope too. The style master general is one of the greatest spotlights to one of the greatest most influential writers this world has ever and will ever see. STYYYYYLE!

decu goldyn1 Posted April 3, 2002 Share Posted April 3, 2002 the dondi book is one of the best graff books i've read i like how it shows the outlines then the exact pieces on the trains it's also incredible how he did so much quality stuff when he was 15-16 respect for the king the book changed my view of my own graff and made me revalueate my letter form also i just relized that the art of getting over - also a great book was written by espo- which is my favorite writer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
