Friday T&A on S&A: Vintage Skateboard Ads
US vs. UK edition
May 23rd, 2008 by Kilwag
Aww, to hell with it. We’re already on a bunch of content blocking filters. Vintage Skateboard Magazines has a bunch of ads archived. On the left is a 1979 Dogtown advert from a US publication, where you can only show the cleavage. On the right is an advert for Olympic Skateboards in an unnamed UK publication that is a lot more cheeky. Love that site. Daniel has a standing invitation to have the archives hosted at Skate and Annoy if he ever decides it’s time for VSM to give up the ghost.

that ad was in Skateboard!, England’s version of Skateboarder. I remember that ad to this day. It was probably the first time a lot of young english lads ever saw boobs.

MC it is safe. I’m merely pointing out the rampant sexism in skateboard advertisements so we can have an intellectual discussion, er, uhh, yeah.
