Thanks Jimmy, it was actually you who inspired me to collect these boards after seeing your old limelight of your Star Wars stuff and boards etc. So thanks Fella. 8)

Thank you Mike. It's worth noting that the artwork on the 4 Ed Templetons is done by Ed himself as he is an artist much like yourself Mike, as well as being a Pro skater and professional photographer. Inspirational guy for sure. 8)

I remember Pig City being into his boards too.
 
That's a great set of boards Grant! Hope you can track down the last couple!
 
I was! My first deck was a Schmitt Stix Chris Miller, which luckily has been re-issued so I bought one a couple of years ago :) Have only been out on it a couple of times, too fragile these days!

Awesome Ed... Love the graphics on that board. I'd say at least 4 of my child friends had the Chris Miller Dog deck, Really popular deck BITD. I had the Miller Faces deck, basically the one he released after the Dog. I wanted the Dog but had to settle for the Faces one instead.
 
Lovin this artwork on the decks, Superb!

I have a simple Fett pic/design I've done which I'd love to try out on a deck one day.
 
Love these decks, Ed Templeton is the king!

My first board was a H-Street Matt Hensley, my second one a Santa Cruz Jeff Kendall ... I love those designs from back in the days! Still have a very worn sweater with the New Deal spraycan logo, my wife wanted to throw it away like ten times already over the years lol

I really can't look into these old skool deck re issues f i want to save some funds for my vintage star wars and my vinyl collection! :D
 
Fantastic run grant are you going to keep it going into toy machine?!
I would love to collect decks but they are too expensive for me so I settled for this book instead.

Thanks for the kinds words Dudes. Mike any of your Fett designs would look good on anything boards, canvases etc... Kayor love the old Jeff Kendall Graffiti deck, proper classic. Clarkspie, no mate not going to go near Toy Machine stuff. It's just about the nostalgia for that time period (late 80's to very early nineties). That's an awesome book tho that I still need to pick up AND don't let the missus chuck up the ND sweater. I still got one too from back then too. 8)
