Silver. Skate. Seventies.: (Photography Books, Seventies Coffee Table Book, 70's Skateboarding Books, Black and White Lifestyle Photography)

Enjoyed this book so much, I bought another copy, and sent it to a friend. These vintage photographs capture a time when life was less stressful and carefree. The age of the subjects, and the subject matter, work together harmonesly. (What's not to love about youthful teenagers, and young adults, enjoying the Art of Skateboarding). It's a perfect match!All of the photographs are large full page black and white photos. Vintage photographs that reflect the time period in which they were taken. For me, it was a feast for the eyes.This book is hardbound and contains a generous amount of quality photographs. It is the perfect coffee table book that guests would love to flip through. It would become the topic of many interesting conversations. It would also make a great gift. Photography lovers of all ages would appreciate it's artistic value.Would I buy this book again? Absolutely! It is a handsome book that is worth more than what it's being sold for. It really is a great value.

Love all the cool photos and stories! So much nostalgia and history.

I gave this to my son for Christmas and it’s a beautiful book. Comprised of all pictures. Perfect to have on display.

This took me back to my youth, but not in the US. I was a boarder in the UK and was on the bleeding edge of the sport in the early 70’s. Great nostalgia

I got this book 2 days ago. It is full of pictures I have never seen before and I have seen all of the pictures Hugh Holland has posted online.It's a Nice Big Coffee Table Book that feels soooooo good to see, pickup, touch, hold & smell.

Book was just want I wanted and delivered in perfect condition

If you lived in this era, it’s a great trip down memory lane. Awesome photos to indulge in.

Christmas gift for boyfriend. Loves it, great coffee table peice.

Seriously the best skateboard photography book I have seen! Incredible selection of Hugh Holland’s work.

This is a remarkable book. Full flight imagery giving gritty insight into the period of skateboarding in California during the 1970's; this book oozes authenticity. Printed on matt paper, the fact that it is matt makes the noise laden images come alive. When i was skateboarding during the period this is what it was like - makeshift ramps, boarding on the run (evading police), shirtless and free to simply be young and irreverent. I loved the amber glow of the polyU wheels, and as i look at the photographs i can hear the whooping and hollering of guys and girls going at it hard on concrete and bitumen. I love this book. Beautifully designed; the title on the cover is pure logo-esque (embossed no less), the full page bleeds, excellent cropping etc come together to give you a visual smorgasbord of skateboarding from the golden period of amateur concrete flyers killing it big time. Get this book, now.

Was a present for my husband and he loves it. Beautiful book.Very good transaction.

Parfait, bien emballé, en parfait etat, arrivé en temps et en heure
