Skateboard Deck Original OG - Skater: Jason Lee - Company: Blind - American Icons - Used - Wood - Bought in skateshop around 1990
78 cm / 23 cm
Hi Sandro,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
The Prime American Icons Blind OG skateboard deck, featuring artwork by Marc McKee for Jason Lee, was originally released by Blind Skateboards in 1991. This deck became iconic for its satirical take on American culture and is considered one of the most influential graphics in skateboarding history.
In recent years, Prime Skateboards has produced limited reissues of this classic deck. These reissues are hand-pressed in Los Angeles and often come in modern shapes, such as popsicle decks, while retaining the original artwork. Some editions are hand-screened and signed by Marc McKee, making them highly sought after by collectors.
An original unused board from 1991 would have significant fair-market value - US$1,200-1,800 (approximately €1,000-1,500) but the wear of this skateboard - including the lack of wheels and decoration - will negatively impact its value UNLESS you are a skater of significance/prominence.
Based on the photos and information provided, and subject to examination, this is:
