A teenager from 183rd Street in Washington Heights in northern Manhattan, he started writing his name in 1969. TAKI is a diminutive for a number of Greek names, and his street number following was the style of wall writers of the era.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"artist\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eIn the summer of 1970, TAKI 183 worked as a messenger, which took him well beyond his neighborhood. Pocketing the taxi fare provided by his employer, he walked to his delivery destinations instead, writing along the way, making him the first graffiti writer to go “all-city.” TAKI's simple signature captured the attention of a reporter and, in the summer of 1971, an article appeared in The New York Times. TAKI was the first New Yorker to become famous for writing graffiti.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003eTAKI 183 is a legend whose name has traveled the world and is one of the forefathers of the graffiti movement.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003e\u003ci\u003eHand-Tagged MTN Spray Can,\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 2024\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMontana Colors Spray Paint, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLow Pressure Can in Wood and Acrylic Case\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStamped with the TAKI183's tag\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpray Paint Color: Matte Black, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e400ml.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLimited Edition \u0026amp; Hand Signed\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Beyond the Streets","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50493023486061,"sku":"wui1790048216421","price":21.17,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0711\/9532\/8621\/files\/spray-can-taki-168_1.webp?v=1790048230","url":"https:\/\/coffeescale.shop\/products\/spray-can-taki-168","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
