Send radness over email

Or your cell phone, I guess. PayPal background graphics that MC found. I should try and get these guys to sponsor Ebay Watch.

picnic

More marginally skateable art

Well, it looks like someone should be skating on it, or is that just wishful thinking? Ollie to full loop anyone? Picnic, by Michael Beitz. is installed at the Madison Museum of Contemporary Art in Madison, WI. Bigger, better pics at Colossal.

Vintage skate harassment

Original vintage no skateboarding poster on sale at Antikbar. Published by the British Railways Board in 1978, it will set you back £325.00 or about $560. Pretty cool, but not that’s a steep price. There must be a British Railways Board collector’s scene.

Don’t be such a chicken

You know all those horrible wildlife shirts you see Grover wearing in photos, assorted GVK videos and real life? Most of them come from his mom, as did this beauty.

Astronauts Guide to Life

Chris Hadfield has a new book titled An Astronaut’s Guide to Life on Earth. The astronaut on the cover is on a skateboard, as is the astronaut in the promo video his son made. Good stuff all around. I guess I should have said “The Right Stuff.” [Source: Metro]

Coastal Cooler

Coastal Cooler from Capri Sun. When I was a kid we used to get these for long road trips with the family. It was like a bottle of champaign to me.

muppets

Muppets. In your face, until you’re sick of them.

So this started off as a follow up find to the other picture of Mr. Snuffleupagus on a skateboard, but of course, I couldn’t leave well enough alone. It’s by no means the definitive Muppets skateboarding post, a good place to start for that is the Muppet Wiki. If only I could channel this enthusiasm and energy into my career…

tdk-spymag-mar89

TDK tapes, so real.

This is a TDK advertisement shot at Venice Beach circa 1989. I’ve seen this up on ebay before, actually but this one actually comes from the Google Books, repository, adjacent to the digital knoll. It’s from “Spy” magazine… ha. Remember that one? I’m looking at the shape of that board and thinking that might be Dave Hackett. Anyone got any other ideas? – Thanks to Sandor for the tip.

jamba

Jolly Mambo?

Not exactly a Jolly Mambo, more of an Ollie from Jamba Juice. It’s a pretty weak representation of what passes for a so-called “game” on a web site these days. The Adventure Blender let’s you pick a character, in this case Ollie, and switch out his background, hat shoes and toy. I smell a cease and desist from the Gelfand estate. (He’s doing fine, I know) Only one of these options has a helmet, I also smell another recall. – Thanks to Kevin for the tip.
