Replying to @wikidelphia1
Cornbread, a writer from Philadelphia, is widely recognized by graffiti historians as the first person to start writing his name on walls in a stylized fashion back in 1965 with the intent of putting it as many places as possible. Of course people have been writing on walls for as long as time but the culture of graffiti as we know today was born right here with Cornbread
