The book traces McCray’s legendary story from his beginnings in North Philadelphia to his rise as a cultural icon in the late 1960s. When the Philadelphia Tribune mistakenly announced his death in 1971, Cornbread made headlines by tagging an elephant at the Philadelphia Zoo and even a TWA jet, turning an anonymous wall writer into a public figure. The book unfolds in four sections: 36 pages of archival newspaper clippings, 48 pages of Cornbread’s drawings, 48 pages of historic photographs, and a revealing interview with Cornbread by Maxitype.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Idea Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48169864331499,"sku":"9782970173076","price":46.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0508\/1061\/files\/250908.cornbread.9782970173076.jpg_1920x1920_b8b51c10-e752-4e79-a71a-2affe93daddc.jpg?v=1777669730","url":"https:\/\/store.hammer.ucla.edu\/products\/cornbread-the-legend-2nd-edition","provider":"Hammer Museum Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
