Pep #331 (November 1977) features a one page story with Archie skateboarding titled “Tide Ride,” as well as a Youth Opportunity Sales Club ad in which you can earn a skateboard by selling 16 boxes of greeting cards.

Lucy is so mean to Snoopy, and everyone else for that matter. Peanuts Wiki says this first appeared on March 26th 1979., otherwise I would have pegged this as being mid to late 80’s. Full frame after the jump.

On the right, you’re looking at a personal Christmas card that Mark Sellman illustrated in the style of the famous John Lucero jester model seen on the left. Skateboard photos via the Madrid Facebook account. Greeting card art courtesy of Mark Sellman

Just when you thought Tech Deck has had run its course. Shredline 360 is a motorized turntable with swappable obstacles that is 20″ in diameter when fully assembled. It’s a little small and janky looking for the serious fingerboarder, but I can imagine a little kid getting stoked about this and spending a lot of time with it. Yes, I am aware that I used the term “serious fingerboarder” without irony.

“Model of the Month” in the December 2002 (#483) issue of White Dwarf magazine is Tony Ork by Stan Byrne. White Dwarf is a magazine devoted to players of the game Warhammer. A section of the magazine features gaming models and figures created and/or painted by the readers. Not just a casual skateboarder, the Andrecht is called out by name. I’m not a Warhammer player, but I assume “Orc” and “Ork” are interchangeable. This is the first time you’ve seen an Orc or and Ork in jeans…

This is issue #48 of Reggie’s Wise Guy Jokes, published in January of 1979 by the Archie Comics Group. It’s got skateboarding on the cover as well as two single page stories that feature skateboarding, including what just might be the first ever guitar-as-skateboard!

Kinder Em-Eukal makes cough drops and sweets and has a mascot named Felix. The packaging was designed by an agency called Milk Food. So far Felix has been spotted with an orange, blue, and yellow skateboard. Thanks to… I want to say… David Maes for the tip?

It’s Jesus riding a skateboard! These faux ugly Christmas sweaters that are actually sweatshirts are available from about 100 different online merchants. It’s a shame that Jesus isn’t rendered in the blocky fashion to match the rest of the illustration.

Bugs Bunny #213 is from October, 1979. It was published by Western Publishing under the Gold Key and Whitman labels, the former in newsstands and the latter in poly bags for stores. A disapproving Elmer Fudd looks on as Bugs prepares to go into a double-truck carve grind in the pool he must have drained. That wascally rabbit… There are no other skateboard illustrations in this issue except for the one in an Olympic Sales Club ad that features a California Free Former plastic skateboard.
