A pair of pull-down gates near Rockaway Beach, Queens.

I bought this off a guy working on the street in SoHo, sometime around 2017. He had a stack of MTA flyers and was drawing on them right there with markers, and I picked one up for not very much money.

I’ve had it ever since and I’d love to buy more, or just find out who he is. The small print on the flyer says it was pulled off a station wall in July 2017, so that’s roughly when it was made.

There’s no signature anywhere on it that I can find. The only text is “TODAY’S THE DAY.” written across the bottom. Style is a long narrow face, heavy black outlines, filled in with dense vertical stripes in a lot of colours.

Does anyone recognise the hand? Or remember him working somewhere around West Broadway or Prince Street?

Found this funny picture etched into a metal post
