[@cliffycashmore]

I went to New York in 88 with my junior high art class and got to see the last of the trains running. Priceless

I started writing in 68 stopped in mid 74 when I went in the military things were hard in those days life was hard and my escape was graffiti.. I got to live in a world that I will never forget… TURK62,CUE62,MR. HOP!,HARPO!,JUNK126,UNCLE RICAN,CAB707… Ex Vandals, WANTED, WILD STYLE, INDS, THE EBONY DUKES… HIGHBRIDGE BOYS BRONX, New York

I remember that era well. It gave the impression that things were out of hand.

I wish I grew up in New York during the '70s and '80s just to witness the genesis of hip hop. I always compare this genre to jazz, because it got its grassroots start on the urban streets, too and the do-gooders hated it just like they hated hip hop.

I Love insides, and Blamin Tags. Everything involved , from tags to whole cars

Akerockstar? Any more CBS "30 Minutes" Episodes?

[@vincentlara4563]

I first visited New York in July 1982, then moved there the following September. I thought the subway graffiti was awesome! That, along with the seedy, dangerous, (but exciting) Times Square WERE NEW YORK CITY!!!

[@k8track]

I've been looking for old episodes of 30 Minutes forever. Any chance to get a clean copy of this without the intrusive "Hezakya News" splashed across the bottom center portion of the screen?

[@sugarman08]

That was the legendary that graffiti I remember one the whole outside of the train car had a beach scene on it I want the doors opened up it looked like a wave was coming out

[@quietman71]

I'd love to see more episodes of 30 Minutes. See, sonny, back in MY day, our kids' news shows didn't talk down to their audience.

[@brandercolque6946]

What Aired Month and Date was in 1980?

[@brandercolque6946]

@@akerockstar what you can't tell me? Or you just don't remember? Just wondering.

[@quietman71]

1:02 "Rapture" on a kid's program. Back when Saturday morning TV was cool.

[@BUDBLOOOD]

not seen this before

[@jpthompson09]

I somewhat agree with him. On the outside it can sometimes be pretty. Inside its a nuisance.
