And now to the results of our December '99 tag vote
Last month we took a vote of our Graffiti Observer audience to determine your favorite graffiti tag among twenty of our favorites; The winner was to be made into a poster and offered free. As it turned out, two graffiti tags won, quite different in look, so we made both into posters. The two winning tags are shown below.

Before we go on to our "Alice in Wonderland" story, a few comments from our voters:
"definitely a fine edge on some of these works... documentation for graffiti is important because it is a contemporary product of our culture..."

"number 9 is very captivating... very chaotic... has an industry look... the lack of colors makes it look abstract."
rachthb@------.---
"I had a job once building fences around subway yards in NYC to keep artists away. It's cool to see that job was in vain."
jcreis123@----.---
"Wild, weird, interesting pieces of art. It's a shame so many of these talented people go unrecognized."
