This photo book impressively documents the development of graffiti writing in Philadelphia from the late 1960s to the early 1980s. From the first tags at the train station to the first anti-graffiti campaign, these photos allow you to trace the evolution of wall writing and simultaneously document the state's reaction to the phenomenon. Photos like the one of a teenager writing "Tom loves Kate" on a wall illustrate the urge of the youth of that era to communicate. This book documents a piece of history and should pique the interest of every graffiti writer and historian. (From the publisher)
