As far as Philly goes, they don't get the credit they deserve for birthing the NY movement.

The first real typographic trend in graffiti is introduced by TOPCAT 126, a Philadelphia writer who had moved to Harlem. The introduction of his โ€˜Broadway Elegantโ€™, also known as Manhattan Style, marks the first typographic wave within New York City graffiti history. Broadway Elegant featured long slender letters, which often had platforms on the bottoms of the stems. Broadway Elegant was named after the famous New York City Broadway boulevard which bends from Brooklyn through Manhattan al the way up to Yonkers.

Recording of A Bronx Writer's History (1968โ€“1978), a panel discussion on early Bronx graff history in memory of Daniel J. Bonterre/Dr. Soul 1 of The Ebony Dukes, held at the Museum of Bronx History on November 30, 2023. The moderator is STAFF 161 of The Ebony Dukes, the first graffiti crew in The Bronx. A tribute video to Dr. Soul 1 and a presentation by Evaristo Roman of The Ghetto Brothers set the scene for the discussion.

Panelists include CHARMIN 65, RIFF 170, CHAYNE 3, FDT 56, COMET, and Al Dรญaz (BOMB 1). Many pioneering graff writers were present in the audience, including MIKE 171, SJK 171, and ROCKY 184 of WC 188, BUTCH 2, BOT 707, BOM 5, and others. Panelists discuss their entry into the writing world, various early practices and techniques, influential early writers, and much more.
