NOTICED THAT A COPY OF “THE SURFER” SEVERSON’S FIRST ANNUAL SURF PHOTO BOOK IS FOR SALE ON EBAY #7134551499. I BELIEVE THIS IS THE MAGAZINE THAT STARTED HIS PUBLISHING CAREER. IF MY MEMORY IS CORRECT IT CAME OUT IN THE FALL OF 1960. THOUGHT THIS MIGHT BE OF INTEREST TO PEOPLE WHO COLLECT THIS SORT THING.
I DONT BELIEVE IT WAS PRINTED IN ALL CAPS, WAS IT?
GUESS I’M NOT INTERESTED THEN.

There was the original edition printed in 1960, and there was the reprint that came in the late 70’s. I sold one of the 60’s edition that was less than perfect (cut-outs, scribbles - but by the kids of the greatest icon in surf business, missing staple, dogears and folds) for several hundred on ebay. I intend to hold onto my very good 60’s edition forever. It’s a great piece of beatnik / surf design - an incredible contrast to publications of today.
Viejo, I think Keith is trying to tell you you’re SHOUTING.
