Remember when things were BOSS, MAN? My Dad bought this wooden skateboard with clay wheels for a quarter, and I have had it on display for years! The skater looks like he needs practice, right?

    Absolutely gorgeous! And his pose is so perfectly awkward.

    So what year do you think this is from?

    I’d be on a skateboard if I had this.

    I think this skateboard is from the 1960′s – 70′s. The skater is wearing “floods” to show off his high-top Converse style sneakers, but he’s not quite wearing bell bottoms. Things were BOSS in the 60′s, and for a while in the early 70′s.

    It looks like all of his limbs are already broken and swaying in the wind!
