In her book "Tag Town", Martha Cooper photographed vintage graffiti tags in her Washington Heights neighborhood, still visible from the early 1970's to 1980's (tags are those hard to read scribbles you see on mailboxes and other surfaces around most cities). Many of these tags contained arrows, as well as stars, hearts, numbers, etc. These early tags established complex variations of arrows as part of traditional graffiti letterforms. #tagtown #tankhiphop #kongegaarden #retroavangarde #historyasitmighthavebeen (at Kongegaarden) https://www.instagram.com/p/ChFGu8cD7n9/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
