This article was posted by Senior Editor 1 year, 4 weeks, 1 day, 3 hours, 3 minutes ago.

Here is our 12ozProphet Forum Shot of the Day. This is a beautiful old school shot of a window down piece by Comet of The Crazy 5. Comet was Blade’s partner and the 61 denotes it being his 61st piece. Also note the Lee 163rd tag on the door to the right. This photo is originally from Keith Baugh’s book Early New York Subway Graffiti 1973-1975. This photo was posted in the NYC Subways thread in the Writers Forum by STYLEISKING.

The Real Deal

Founded in 1993, 12ozProphet was established with the goal of raising the bar for the graffiti world while integrating its distinctiveness into the wider world of popular culture, art and design. In the years since, 12ozProphet has evolved to become a platform for many of its most authoritative voices.
