Party flyers

1685

'Esquire created more than 300 flyers over a half-decade that were handed out around the neighborhood to advertise the parties. He called his style "neo-deco" — it borrowed heavily from the Art Deco styles of old movie posters.

Buddy Esquire was a prolific handbill artist in hip-hop's early days in the South Bronx. He taught himself how to draw and different styles of lettering by checking out books from the local library — and his flyers are some of the only surviving documents from hip-hop's birth.'
