Back in the Day: The Rise of Skateboarding

Back in the Day features hundreds of Skateboard World photographer William Sharp’s astounding photos from the late 1970s, most of which have never been seen before. The work is priceless, not only for its documentary value, but for the beautiful and poetic images captured and later developed by Sharp himself (many in black and white). Pipes in Arizona, aqueducts in California, pools all over the place, the locales and images must be seen to be believed.
