- Product Description: If you're old like me and remember the Kenner "Early Bird" certificate to pre-order the very first Star Wars figures in 1977, then you'll get the gist of the reference. If not, no worries, I'm more than happy to show my age at the drop of a trivial hat. But here's some essential background to this pre-sale deal: In 2024, Gingko Press decided to stop publishing Disposable: A History of Skateboard Art at which point the rights returned to me. I wasn't ready to lay this book down to permanent rest, though, so Nick and I decided to enter the self-publishing fray with a REMASTERED edition. What exactly does this mean? Well, a new cover for one (many, many thanks to Grant Brittain and Tony Hawk), as well as 16 additional pages bringing the overall count to 260. All-new profiles on Don Pendleton, Winston Tseng, Esao Andrews, and Rookie Skateboards round out some of these pages, but I reshuffled a few others to accommodate other new and/or updated material, including several upgraded deck images, a corrected typo or two, an embarrassing selection of mostly never-before-seen sketches from my employment at Powell Peralta, circa 1989–1991, and more! So, if your original copy of the book is sufficiently, bruised, battered, and tattered, there's no time like the present to update your skate library in the near future. Want to know more?
