Thank you for viewing. Ed Templeton WOOF CAT (1990) New Deal skateboard deck, Ed Templeton's CAT model. Original vintage (purchased around 1990). This is completely different from the recent reissues and is an early model from when he was a pro. I think it has value as an art piece from before Templeton was recognized as an artist. What do you think? *It has been used, so there are scratches. * One large scratch (see image 14) * The graphic part (Cat) has small scratches and holes for rail installation, but no scuffs. In my opinion, it is at a level that can be appreciated. * Please check the images for details. * Price negotiations are not accepted. * Returns are not accepted to prevent switching. No claims, no returns. *Reference: Ed Templeton American professional skateboarder, 2-time world champion. Inducted into the Skateboarding Hall of Fame in 2016. Contemporary artist, photographer. Signed with New Deal Skateboards in 1990 (contract terminated in 1992) Founded the skateboard company Toy Machine in 1994 and still runs the company. His works are in the collections of MoMA (NY), SMAK Museum, Orange County Museum of Art, and Bonnefanten Museum. ☆The following is an excerpt from an interview during his visit to Japan in 2019 (presumably talking about the CAT model, based on the sales situation of the model) *You became a pro with New Deal, right? What are your thoughts on the revival of your early sponsor after 30 years? E: Well, I guess it's okay? New Deal wanted to reissue my model from back then, but it had already been released by Toy Machine. *The same graphic model? E: Yeah. Because I drew the graphic. It's more my graphic than a New Deal graphic. That's why I released it from Toy Machine too. *Toy Machine is selling decks with the same design for 13,750 yen. *New Deal reissues often sell for around 20,000 yen.
