Original 1980s Toy Skateboard
RARE
Early "Fingerboard" from back in the day, the late 1980s - pre "Tech Deck".
This is how early fingerboards were - cheaply made keyrings featuring the most popular deck graphics of the time.
Most of these sold though had the keyring part removed and binned immediately so you could "play" with your mini skateboard toy.
The keyring is easily removed by opening up the metal "C" ring.
They are not like the modern Tech Decks though - these were cheaply made toys. Trucks that don't turn, wheels are just chunks of plastic pushed onto a metal axle. The axles were often slightly bent, wheels often not perfectly central on the axles and they would often "pop" off when you played with them. Keep all of that in mind if you buy these to play with - we won't be refunding you if a wheel falls off!
All of the ones here are perfect (as well as they were made back in the day that is!) and sealed in the original plastic cellophane bag.(see last picture)
Now very rare and collectible - we have 4 or 5 different Alva designs in stock.
All stickers, patches, etc. we sell are official products from the licensed distributors.
