Black version of the 2001 Sean Cliver Bucky Lasek Spoof-Skull deck, full board. Bucky did a partnership with Campbell's Soup in 2004. This board was (I believe) created for Campbell's to raffle off. I won the raffle. I have not been able to find any other black versions. The standard version is blue. There is also an unknown signature on the right of Bucky's (Tim or Tom?) Condition is unused, new.
10" X 31.5"
Hi Jacob,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
I'm pretty sure that signature starts with "Tom" but I can't find a reference to any Tom who had a hand in the production of this board.
This website (http://www.artofskateboarding.com/Pg/aos_pg_detail.asp?prod_id=3194) has this example in blue but provides no pricing for it; the only blue example I can find for sale online is priced at about $1,000 (eBay, unregulated pricing, certainly on the high side - would expect it be priced $400-600) but I'd expect a rare black version to be at least twice this much.
Based on the photos and information provided, and subject to examination, this is:
