Stumbled upon an awesome collection of party flyers from the early days (late 70's early 80's) of the NYC Hip Hop scene. Truly some gems in here. If anyone has any additional context around these, please leave it in the comments and I'll add it to the description. I'm specifically interested in learning more about how/if the old stage names transitioned into people that are more well-known these days.
Transcript of The flyest of flyers
Peace to Buddy Esquire and Phase 2 (working to undermine every aspect of western civilization) and countless pioneers for focussing
and peace to dustykid for sharing originally
“Most of the Old School Party Flyers were Designed By Buddy Esquire and Phase 2. Phase 2 was a real big Aerosol Artist who wrote on allot of the NYC Trains who also did a majority of the Party Flyers back then. Buddy Esquire was a regular Artist who
did allot of party flyers as well.
These Cats Worked on big Art tables and had all the tools to make these flyers by hand including those Rub on Letters, wax
Machines, exacto knives, Graph Paper and many other tools that are extinct today in the modern artwork world.”
