Providence, Rhode Island, 1985. Approximately 5 x 7 inches. Very good contrast; overall near fine. With stamp on verso attributing photo to Peter Mountain and London Features International Ltd. Near fine.. Promotional photograph for the hip-hop trio The Fat Boys; from left to right: Mark “Prince Markie Dee” Morales (1968–2021), Damon “Kool Rock-Ski” Wimbley (b. 1966), and Darren “Buff Love” Robinson (1967–1995). The Fat Boys were a hip-hop group formed in Brooklyn, New York, in the 1980s. They are especially known for their contributions to modern beatboxing and their humorous lyrics. This photograph, which shows the Boys in “jailhouse” costumes in front of a row of apartment buildings, was probably taken by unit stills photographer Peter Mountain.
