A brief history of Skateboard Graphics
James Young offers up a great little summary of skateboard graphics over on the 37 Signals blog. Check out all the galleries at the Disposable skateboard art site (there’s a book too): Ed Templeton. Pushead. Mark Gonzales.
He describes the influence of early ’80s companies like Powell Peralta and Santa Cruz and how the genre changed over the decades – complete with slideshow.
