By now most have heard or seen the infamous Banksy movie Exit Through The Gift Shop. One of the consulting producers for the film and longtime graffiti writer Roger Gastman has recently debuted a project of his own -- a book called 'Tools of Criminal Mischief.'
'Tools of Criminal Mischief' is basically a history book that showcases the past and present of graffiti. With his vast knowledge of street art, Roger Gastman went though his personal archives to dig out visuals and stories that make up the contents of the book, covering street art all the way from the 1940's to now. 'Tools of Criminal Mischief' is limited to 1,500 copies worldwide, so I suggest you place this one-of-a-kind book now before it's gone.
