Jason Lee and Adam McNatt Claudia Schiffer decks!

Well hot dog! Look at these two beauties! To be perfectly honest I could really give a crap about the Adam Mcnatt, but that Jason Lee is one of my favorite graphics ever. Probably has more to do with the time in my life when it came out vs the actual graphic. I do agree the two decks do go well together in this $3499.00 eBay auction, although the whole Blind set would have been better. Here is what the seller had to say about them.

"Greetings collectors. Here you go. 2 of the most rare skateboards in existence, available together--as a set. As you may or may not know, longtime skateboard artist, Sean Cliver, originally drew the graphic on My Name is Earl star Jason Lee's deck for Adam McNatt while he still worked at Powell Peralta. Upon his departure, Steve Rocco at World Industries asked him to redraw the graphic so that they could release the it universally on all 5 Blind pro models. At the time, World Industries was a much smaller and swifter company, and they released the graphic long before Powell could even go in to production with it. The move forced Powell Peralta to come up with a new graphic for the Adam McNatt pro model--which was eventually drawn by John Keester. I guess Adam McNatt had his heart set on having an image of that time supermodel Claudia Schiffer on his first pro model, because that's exactly who you see on both decks."

Proletariat Graphic Leak!

From the first day Kerry and I talked about this board we decided to keep it top secret. We thought that it might be a funny idea if we did two more graphics to leak out to some people a few days before the boards came out. Yesterday I sent out the fake boards to a couple of friends to post up along with a email that told them to make up a story about how I had done something to them and they were posting this as payback. With in few hours the fake boards were posted. Last night Kerry and I were looking for the postings when we came across the actual fucking graphic! Have no idea were they got it from but they had it and it was up on more than a few sites. So without further delay here it is, The Evoker x Proletariat Hover Board.

I am tired of getting asked about this so I will go ahead and just let everyone know right here, right now.

All I can say is that it will be the best thing you have ever seen.

Happy Mothers Day!

Sam Flores

Here's your chance to run up on some really cheap Sam Flores artwork. Both of these drawings are 8" x 10" and come framed. The crazy part is that one of them is going for $1 and the other is at $1.25. Here's a link to the sellers page.

Schmitt Stix Lucero X-1 & X-2

Boo-Ya! Well here's something you don't see every day. This auction is for the Schmitt Stix Lucero X-1 and X-2. The X-1 is from 85 and the X-2 is from 86. Both have graphics done by John Lucero himself. Buy it now set to $2550.00.

Antidesigns x Evoker

Last night Jay from Antidesigns came over with some samples of the new shirt we are doing together. These should be out very soon, we just have to decide if we are going to leave the Evoker at the bottom.

Proletariat x Overkill Studios

Jess and I went down to Proletariat last night to check out Overkill Studio's mural for the PB(art) series. We had a couple cheap beers and watched them paint this super funny mural. Good job guys!

Don't forget Fish and I are painting this same wall on June 2nd 5-8pm. See you there.

Hessenmob Skateboards

Hessenmob in my opinion is putting out some of the best skateboard graphics right now. How can you go wrong with artists including Shepard Fairey, Evan Hecox, Andy Jenkins, Don Pendleton, Mark Gonzales, Dave Kinsey, Flying Fortress, and The Chimp. The company started in 1999 somewhere in Germany and is distributed by Equal Distribution in the U.S., but good luck ever seeing one Stateside. This is just a small taste of their deck line up. You can see the rest of it here or pay a crap load of $ not including shipping for one here.

Ed Roth Hand Painted Skateboard

EBay find #2 of the day.
This is what the description said. "this is a original, hand painted Rat Fink done by Ed Roth Himself!This was done around the time Ed was working with Madrid skateboards to make an official Rat Fink board. Ed got blank decks from the company, and would paint and sell them at shows. This one was purchased from Ed Roth at the show. Board has NEVER been mounted or skated. Black outlines done in one shot paint and the color in neon spray paint. Same kind Ed uses on shirts sometimes. Really cool part, you can see Ed's rough pencil sketch under the paint a little!!!!! This is a one-off original piece of Rat Fink history."
Currently selling for $400 with one bid here.

1988 Sims Kevin Staab Green

I saw this 1988 Sims Kevin Staab on eBay this morning. This Staab model was very popular in its day and I see them on eBay all the time, but never in this monochromatic green color scheme. As of right now it's going for $202.50 complete with OJ2 Freestyle wheels and Indy's. Bidding ends May 5Th 11:39 PDT. Totally radical dude!
