Roller Derby Skate Boards 1959 T-Shirt
Retro Skater T-Shirt
designed and sold by JCD666
In Dana Point, California, Bill Richards and his son Mark invented the first skateboard in 1958 by attaching a set of roller skate trucks and wheels to a wooden board. The Richards’ began selling their boards at their North Hollywood surf shop for $8 a piece in 1959, calling them 'Roller Derby Skate Boards.' Initially selling about ten a week, sidewalk surfing moved from a niche to a national sensation in the '60s, and by the end of 1965, the United States had over 15 million skaters, and the industry generated $100 million in annual sales. Not bad coming from a single idea hobbled together from existing components in the garage, huh?
