Item description from seller

New York is the world capital of street graphics - a creative kaleidoscope of urban ephemera in the form of signs, symbols, graffiti, murals and advertising. Its innovative ideas, styles and mediums quickly become international. This volume documents the emotionally charged street imagery of the city post-September 11th. New York landmarks are represented in chic fashion advertising on iconic tourist souvenirs. Ethnic diversity is signified through a cultural smorgasbord of restaurant signs. Jazz Age vitality, brash 60s Pop Art, hip graffiti, stencil and sticker art - throughout, Barry Dawson portrays the energy and humanity of New York through visual themes that surprise, intrigue and amuse. Here is a sourcebook for designers, a quirky visitors' guide and a historical document of a time that changed New York, America and the world. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Store description

In 2002, World of Books Group was founded on an ethos to do good, protect the planet and support charities by enabling more goods to be reused. Since then, we've grown into to a global company pioneering the circular economy. Today, we drive the circular economy through three re-commerce brands: - Wob: Through Wob, we sell. We provide affordable, preloved books and media to customers all over the world. A book leaves our collection of over seven million titles and begins a new chapter every two seconds, enabling more goods to be reused. - Ziffit: Through Ziffit, we buy. We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others.
