This edition was one of 12 artist designed skateboards published to commemorate the Untitled 2001 exhibition in Tokyo in conjunction with The Keith Haring Foundation. Each skateboard in the series was published in an edition of only 100. That’s right only … 100. Most of them no longer exist (were skated on etc), and we’re guessing that there’s maybe a couple dozen that still exist in mint condition. You can probably count on one hand the number of full sets that exist in the world. This board is in excellent condition with some scuffing. Artists include: Margaret Kilgallen, Phil Frost, Barry McGee, Ben Saffer, Mike Mills, Tommy Guerrero, Steve Powers, Todd James, Mark Gonzales, Thomas Campbell, Ed Templeton and Chris Johanson.
