Brighton Beach Memoir

I went on a photo mission out in BK this past weekend and came across some truly old graffiti. Way before the Lox and DMX repped Ruff Riders, Mikey and Pee Wee were running through the back alleys of Brighton Beach with the original Rough Riders crew, (Tags Dated 1954)...

This is fresh…Not necessarily graffiti but still hand done. I believe this is also from the same era as the Rough Riders, possibly even earlier…still digging. More on this mission in the future…Thanks S.K.
