TOPSPRAYER EXPIRED™ is the legendary, fully revised, and expanded edition of the long-out-of-print INTERNATIONAL TOPSPRAYER™. For a decade, this book was a ghost in the publishing world due to the legal risks involved. Now, with the 10-year statute of limitations finally expired, the suspects MOSES & TAPS™ have come forward to release this definitive "confession" in words and pictures.
This isn't just a reprint; it is a massive update containing years of previously classified or unseen documentation. For collectors and enthusiasts of train graffiti, this is the ultimate "Must Have."
The 1000-Day Challenge
Between 2007 and 2010, MOSES and TAPS swapped identities and—with the help of various accomplices—vandalized 1000 passenger trains in 1000 days. While the original 2011 book documented this feat, TOPSPRAYER EXPIRED™ goes much further, adding work from 2011 and 2012 that has never been seen by the public.
