The Faith of Graffiti

Edition : First / New York / Alskog / 1974 / Softcover. / VG+
4to. 96pp. Printed wraps as issued. Numerous colour plates. Text in English. The most scarce of the variants. This copy has had quite a hard life, there is a split at the bottom of the spine and the covers are worn to corners and edges. It’s solid though and in no danger of deterioration.

A classic, definitive look at the birth of graffiti as an art form, pairing the fascinating 1974 essay by Norman Mailer—National Book Award and two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Naked and the Dead and The Executioner’s Song—with the stunning, iconic photography of internationally acclaimed photographer Jon Naar. Super early and super good.
