Finally: a Book About Skateboard Graphics That's Actually Made for Skateboarders06/04/05 -- Longtime skateboard artist Sean Cliver has authored a 244-page, full-color book showcasing over 1,000 skateboard graphics from the last three decades. Alongside his own unique history within the industry, Sean has assembled a wealth of recollections and stories from such prominent artists and professional skateboarders as Wes Humpston, Craig Stecyk III, Jim Phillips, Lance Mountain, Pushead, Ed Templeton, Jason Jessee, Steve Caballero, Jason Lee, Tony Hawk, Steve Rocco, Natas Kaupas, Marc McKee, Mike Vallely, Neil Blender, Bam Margera, Tommy Guerrero, Thomas Campbell, Barry McGee, Rodney Mullen, Christian Hosoi, and many others, providing not only a fascinating account of art in the skateboard culture but credible insight into legendary companies like Powell Peralta, Dogtown, Santa Cruz, World Industries, Alva, Blind, Zorlac, Vision, and Santa Monica Airlines. The book also features never before seen concept sketches, prototype decks, and questionable use of the English language. After selling out in less than two months exclusively through skateboard shops, "Disposable: A History of Skateboard Art" (second edition) is now also available at specialty retailers Urban Outfitters, Hennessey + Ingalls, and Giant Robot. Disposable hits mass-market retailers Barnes & Noble and Amazon.com early November 2005.
