Freight Fridays Feature Fix

 Short story behind this image is that the top image was benched by us summer 2014. The bottom image was later spotted by us on the internet last year. We would learn later that the writer wasn't able to finish the piece but the car rolled back to their spot and finished it... what are the chances?! Dope piece on this excess height BNSF boxcar by KEEPS

Freight Friday

This weeks Freight Friday is an oldy.  Much respect to any piece that is able to last this long on the rails.  This one appears to date back to 1999 and is outlasted an all out buff and toys as well as being gone over all together.  It did suffer some injury being stamped but most of it remains.  You can still make out most of the color.  This piece dates back to when "graffiti paint" was just an idea so you can be safe to assume this paint was Krylon and Rustoleum brands.

It seems that the Golden West Service flat panel boxcars allowed a lot of writers to run for a long time.  We find it impressive for any piece to run longer than 5 years these days.  To see one go for over 15 years is very impressive and deserves its props.

Action TBT

These are a couple of old action shots we have sitting around.  They go back to around 2004-2006 and are apart of a small collection.  SOSA featured here to the right was selected as one of this weeks Feature Writer of the Day on our Facebook Page.

Action shots go waaaay back and can be seen in books like Subway Art.  Almost ALL graffiti writers have action shots of themselves or someone else.  They've become a staple in any dedicated graffiti writers illegal portfolio.

 

We do not condone any kind of graffiti vandalism on public or private property.  We have documented the graffiti art over many years for those who appreciate this type of art work and features work from around the world.  Our goal is to educate those who are also interested in learning about this underground subculture.  If you have any questions or have images you would like to share, please email us at sales@graffinctrades.com
