SAPPHIRE WHISPER

  About:

Physical Graffiti is a small vintage clothing store at 96 St Marks Place, that was opened in 1994 by Ilana Malka. The last Led Zeppelin album used the very same building for the album's cover pictured below. The building was also used as backdrop for a Rolling Stones music video - Waiting on a Friend. The concentration of shops on St. Marks Place reflects the current flavor. The street has been home to hippies, yippies, punks, political activists and protest marches, renowned bookstores, music stores and clubs (e.g. Electric Circus), graffiti artists, cafes, clothing shops, restaurants, bars, theaters - physical graffiti well describes the street itself. Pop in and say hi to Liz and see the most interesting selection of men's and women's vintage clothing in the city.
