Sidewalk Surfer Stickers
Description: Founded in 1970, California Free Former was the world's largest manufacturer of skateboards during the skateboard craze of the '70s. The Torrance, California-based company ceased operations in 1981 as skateboarding's second wave was just picking up and today, California Free Former boards are highly sought after collectibles as given the very rough and tumble nature of their usage, very few survived.

Description: In Dana Point, California, Bill Richards and his son Mark invented the first skateboard in 1958 by attaching a set of roller skate trucks and wheels to a wooden board. The Richards’ began selling their boards at their North Hollywood surf shop for $8 a piece in 1959, calling them 'Roller Derby Skate Boards.' Initially selling about ten a week, sidewalk surfing moved from a niche to a national sensation in the '60s, and by the end of 1965, the United States had over 15 million skaters, and the industry generated $100 million in annual sales. Not bad coming from a single idea hobbled together from existing components in the garage, huh?
