Fantastic! Congratulations. I remember seeing the one owned by the Smithsonian displayed in the National Museum of American History some years back.

Please, whatever you do... Do not restore it!
Its gorgeous with tons of character as is.... Plus, the graffiti hits pictured are some very early 70's examples when writing in New York was in it's infancy. The majority of "tags" from that era have all been eradicated aside from a few examples underground and in abandoned lines and stations. This early graffiti is so culturally important to the city's history, and should be saved by all means necessary. Again... Amazing find!! ....please keep it as is. ☺ Just my two cents... Brent

Research on Yankee Stadium Ticket Kiosk Graffiti
I've been doing some research on the graffiti on the booth. There is incredible coverage of Bronx early-1970s graffiti and its artists. These are just a few things I've been able to find:
1) There is graffiti from this kiosk (pic 1) which appears on the Smithsonian kiosk as well (pic 2). 2) There is graffiti on this kiosk (pic 3) which still appears on the wall of Gate 4 in early 1974 (pic 4). "Salt 168" was a Bronx graffiti artist whose work was apparently well-known in the 1970s. He was from 168th Street. 3) Three of the names that appear in one area of the kiosk belong to members of the "56 Boys", apparently big-time Bronx graffiti artists who worked as a team in the early 1970s: FDT 56, HOY 56, and TINE 56 (final name appears twice). They were all from 156th Street, hence the name. The last photo (pic 6) shows their work on a subway train from the early 1970s. I'm still working on these. There are more that also match graffiti on other booths and the stadium itself. I'll post more photos of the booth in case anyone's interested. Sure glad there are folks who feel the same way about graffiti as we do about baseball. Last edited by Ronnoco; 08-14-2016 at 04:51 PM.
