Here is our 12ozProphet Forum Shot of the Day. To go out on a limb, I’d say the pieces on this wholecar look like they say Rich, Pade, Min, and Hush. Feel free to confirm or correct in the comments below. This photo was posted in the NYC Subways section of the Writers Forum by 90SBROOKLYN.

[strongYou are correct this is a Rich2, Pade, Min, Hush (Kel First) whole car done at City Hall layup. This is a great example of how dominant RTW was in that time (mid 1980s). Many of the whole cars by Kel, Min and the RTW crew were among the last of the great style writing productions on subways. Interestingly Kel First displays a break away from the traditional lettering format of the 80s and reaches back to the 1970s with his wild style tag burner. He was one of the few who saw this possibility, as well if you take note the color usage by RTW was also innovative. Kel First was by far one the best Style Masters of his time, Min who was his protege as well continued dominating the subways with his NE and MIN throw ups as well as his hand styles. - RTW - ROC- CIA
