Awesome hip-hop flyers from the '70s, '80s

Link to full-size image. In. Fucking. Credible. gallery of early hip-hop flyers. Page takes forever to load, all of the images (dozens of 'em) are slapped on one endless static page. But what an amazing collection! Maybe someone with time, basic html skillz, and love for old-school will feel inspired to contact these guys and volunteer some web makeover services.
