[VARIOUS ARTISTS]COLLECTION OF 12 HIP HOP FLYERS, DESIGNED BY VARIOUS ARTISTS, RANGING IN DATE FROM 1985-1992. Original paper handbills, ranging in size from 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 in. to 8 1/2 x 11 in., on pink, white, black, and blue paper, 5 being on thicker card stock. One with rectangular section clipped away at foot, one with some crinkling and small stains, some occasional light edge-wear. Hip Hop flyers such as these are some of the best primary sources for documenting the nascent Hip Hop movement. Packed with information, they record early fashion, the party scene, and give us the ability to trace the early evolution the careers of numerous DJs and artists; because they were only intended for short time use, very few have survived intact.
