who is bozo texino - Moniker Culture, by guest2 on Apr 19, 2008 1:46:52 GMT 1,
A new Book is due out by Bill Daniels, the film maker and historian of Moniker culture who filmed/produced 'who is bozo texino' which "chronicles the search for the source of a ubiquitous and mythic rail graffiti-- a simple sketch of a character with an infinity-shaped hat and the scrawled moniker, "Bozo Texino"-- a drawing seen on railcars for over 80 years.
Twist (Barry McGee) did the cover for it and the book also features Labrona and Other among many more.
its the first book ever on the moniker culture, rail workers hoboes etc. I've just recently been finding out about this culture and it's absolutely fascinating.

who is bozo texino - Moniker Culture, by guest2 on May 9, 2008 11:46:01 GMT 1, Got the film and it's a pretty hypnotic journey and a lesson on the hobo. The history of the 1st ever Graff Train Painters!
Anyways, I thought it would be nice to see this film travel round the UK and the world also to various well respected forum members so if anyone would like to see this film and keep it for a week and then move it on to another member please contact me.
