About this product
Product Information
At a time when surfing is more popular than ever, it's fitting to look back at the years that brought the sport into the mainstream. Developed by Hawaiian Islanders over five centuries ago, surfing began to peak on the mainland in the 1950s--becoming not just a sport, but a way of life, admired and exported across the globe. One of the key image-makers from that period is LeRoy Grannis, a surfer since 1931, who began photographing the longboard era of the early 1960s in both California and Hawaii. This edition brings back Grannis's hair-raising, sold-out Collector's Edition, curated from the photographer's personal archives, to showcase his most vibrant work in a compact and affordable format--from the bliss of catching the perfect wave at San Onofre to dramatic wipeouts at Oahu's famed North Shore. An innovator in the field, Grannis suction-cupped a waterproof box to his board, enabling him to change film in the water and stay closer to the action than any other photographer of the time. He also covered the emerging surf lifestyle, from "surfer stomps" and hordes of fans at surf contests to board-laden woody station wagons along the Pacific Coast Highway. It is in these iconic images that a sport still in its adolescence embodied the free-spirited nature of an era--a time before shortboards and celebrity endorsements, when surfing was at its bronzed best.

Grannis's pictures are startling. The scenes they record and breaks they document are pristinely beautiful and impossibly vacant.

Wonderful communications with this Seller - quick & timely eMails, rapid mailing of this GREAT PENCIL. Matter of fact - the Seller was a bit 'unsure' that mailing this item to the Mid-West would be as quick as had actually occurred: about ten days, or less. Do recommend this Seller to any eBay Buyer. ... I didn't mention the 'packing' - but this pencil arrived very-well-packaged for overseas shipment. Again, THANKS, SELLER.
