NEW GONZ PRO MODEL




Continuing with vintage advertising theme, but going a little deeper into the archives, here is a spot-color example from the then-still-published-on-newsprint, Thrasher (June 1985). It's announcing the new Vision/Mark Gonzales pro model, one of the ALL TIME classic board graphics ever released. I rode at least four different colorways of this deck between 1985-1987.

BTW- Thrasher has been slowly scanning and posting their 25+ year collection of printed material here.

Ah man that's rad. I've never seen that. Gonz is the man. I just found an old shirt of this graphic on ebay (now a prized posession). That board was super rad. Love you're blog man.
