CREATING THE 10.0 PUNK SLAB ...... THIS IS GONNA BE GROSS AND BAD ASS
Granite State Punk Greatest Slab In The World
STORY TIME - This one is a fun one!! So, I was so proud of the SCOUT release! If you don’t know Granite State Punk was part of BLACK CARAVAN.
This is a division of Scout that I feel had the coolest vibe. My favorite books from the SCOUT catalog were in this division and my book is one of those was amazing properties it blew my mind. I quickly signed the contract and was super excited for this series. Sadly, before my release BLACK CARAVAN was disbanded but I had so many ideas on what I wanted to do with the book. I wanted a Punk Rock Concert! I want unique merch. One of those unique merch was creating a cool CGC SLAB. We have a little under 50 slab in the world for GRANITE STATE PUNK. All at high 9.9-9.6 grade but one of my ideas for my PUNK ROCK book was to make a 0.5 ON PURPOSE!! So, we put together this beauty.
This book is DESTROYED!! We have done a bunch to this book!! We ran over with a car! We wrote on the front and back! We ripped it!! We put stickers on it! We smeared it with PIZZA. Lots of gross stuff… we did however dry it and make sure it didnt smell when we were done. Here some more shots!!
So, as you can see we treated this poorly to get a low grade!! However, what we got was EVEN WORSE!! When the CGC returned this happened
For those who dont want to watch a video. It has a sticker on it saying DO NOT GRADE!! STICKY!! So, we didnt get it back with a grade!!
So, later that year i was in NH for GRANITE STATE CON!! At that con the great PETER LAIRD was there and because of that TONS OF PEOPLE BROKE THEIR SLABS to get it signed by Peter Laird
So, i took one of these LAST RONIN bigger SLABS and i made this. I am so proud of making this book!
This slab is one of the greatest things that I have ever created!! I put it on the new campaign and really wanted to share the origin of this SLAB. This is campaign is live and you dont want to miss it!!
