The Message.
In the early days of Hip Hop, the flyer was the way to get the word out about the next jam. The most memorable were designed by Phase 2 and Buddy Esquire. These flyers incorporated Art Deco inspired ornamentation, cut out photos and transfer lettering.
I recently found four I’d saved from back in the day. If you want to check out more, the guys at Toledo Hip Hip have over one hundred.
