Quoted post lots of people involved in this project, but thanks. wouldn't mind knowing what you consider to be the highlights? Quoted post [/b] No doubt. Highlights: G.O.D: Spotlight KET: Spotlight DESA: Spotlight I WAS HERE (Miguel Diaz de Lopez/Caleb Neelon)- this shit was hot shun, possibly my favorite section of the book.. The fold out which features everything from CTA Clean's to US Gov Postal Trucks to Flatsides.. Bottom line, the book itself is worth checking out just to peep the attention to detail paid to each individual page. Raven and Co. utilized techniques like varnishing and embossing as well as printed different sections in various paper stocks which led to the creation of a superior product, an original product. Definitely props to all involved in AKANYC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Rage- Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Ditto. But not three. That makes one gold, one silver, one neutral and one skate deck. Killer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harvey Wallbanger Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 I missed Gold by about three minutes... so silver, neutral, and a deck will have to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misteraven Posted November 25, 2005 Author Share Posted November 25, 2005 thanks for all the support guys... there are in fact a small batch of gold (and silver) that will be set to the side and released a couple copies at a time between now and christmas. so if anyone missed out, keep an eye on 4thw and maybe you'll get a second chance at it. anyways...

GLIK$ Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Unless you're a REAL gear collector, I wouldnt imagine being able to get my hands on those AF1s. Making the Nom de Guerre's look like a joke. Those silver covers look fucking blingtastic, they'd match my fronts and G-Unit spinner chain so well.

Harvey Wallbanger Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Yeah, silver and red is where it's at. On another note, the picture of the shoes on Freshness says "courtesy of Young Geezy"...is he down with the 12 oz family or something?

Cracksmoka Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 so i ordered of one of the non U.S. sites when 4thw was sold out, and somewhere along the lines "book" and "skateboard deck" got mixed up somehow, ah well fuck it, ima keep the deck and now im just waiting on my gold cover (which i wasnt planning on opening) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
