About the Skull and Sword Artwork: The Rodriguez "Skull & Sword" deck was the first pro signature
deck graphic produced by Powell-Peralta. The graphic was conceived by
Ray and Illustrated by V.C. Johnson with art direction from George
Powell in 1979. Initially released in two distinctly different shapes; a 10" x 30"
"Widetail" version and a 10" x 28.5" "Snub Nose,” it came in
"Brite-Lite" Dayglo yellow, orange, purple and green. In years to
follow, it was made in various different colors and a Powell-Peralta
logo was added. In 1983 Ray's signature was removed and replaced with a
Powell-Peralta script logo. The graphic was also used for T-shirts and
stickers. Originally Released: 1979 Artwork by: Vernon Courtlandt Johnson *Has OG Truck Bolt Hole Pattern* Brand Powell-Peralta Deck Shape 271 Deck Concave FK2 Deck Wheelbase 16.625" Deck Length 28.25" Deck Width 10" Deck Nose 1.25" Deck Tail 5.38"
