The Flyer Kings flyers are among the most elusive of all of hip hop's old school artifacts. Their importance that cannot be overstated. They were the visual manifestation of the block's word-of-mouth. On any given day in the early 80s, you might have heard, "Yo, you hear Cold Crush is going to rock Harlem World tonight?", but it was the flyer that promoters used that would get the word out.
