{"product_id":"morris-park-crew-the-official-history-9780764341571","title":"Morris Park Crew: The Official History","description":"No other graffiti crew from New York City's graffiti heyday conjures up more images of angel dust-smoking, beer-drinking, \"crazy white boys,\" than the Bronx-born-and-bred writing group Morris Park Crew (MPC). This official history of the crew tells the stories behind the group with never-before-published photos, oral histories from MPC members, and details on the 2009-2010 MPC revival. Starting in 1977, when founding members Slip, Wedge, and Speed started the crew, this account continues with details of how Cap 1 took over and led the crew down its unforgettable path in the 1980s. With a penchant for going to war with rival graffiti crews for train space and territory, which in turn led to the largest city-wide cross-out campaign, the MPC was known as a bunch of thugs who beat, hung, and shot perceived rivals and a group of talent-less \"toys.\" Wrapped up in this raw tell-all about the bad boys of NYC graffiti, are not just accounts of the crew's passion for graffiti, but the real-life challenges its young members faced in their urban environment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Schiffer Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/19\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780764341571\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.86lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 12.10h x 9.30w x 0.70d","brand":"John F.
