skateboarding and skateboarding related art / photography books!

all of these below are my small and humble collection of skateboarding and skateboarding related art books that i have been gathering for some years now. these are my gems and i take care of them carefully and not to crease the spines of the books. i hate it when that happens, don'cha?
