Skateboard stickers have always been highly collectable, and this will be the first book to bring together some of the most popular stickers, both classic and new. At a time when skateboarding has already established itself in the mainstream, and is now coming back into the 'cool', the book will have massive appeal, combining a nostalgic 'revival' element appealing to the older generation of skaters, while also having a big appeal to current younger skateboard enthusiasts. The book will also have global appeal due to the widespread popularity of skateboarding culture.

The book will feature stickers from the following brands: Alien Workshop, REAL, Toy Machine, Girl, and Santa Cruz. Approximately 30 stickers will be included from each brand.
