Created by three local San Clemente surfers who opened “The Surf Spot” surf store, these cards were designed to complement their innovative “Surf Spot” board wax. A total of 19 different cards were included as inserts tucked inside each bar of wax, offering surfers and enthusiasts a unique way to connect with their favorite sport. (See images for original packaging) Now celebrating 40 years since their release, these cards are not only a nostalgic reminder of surfing's vibrant past but also present a challenge for collectors. Finding these old cards in mint condition is increasingly difficult, making them even more sought after. Their historical significance can be traced back to when they were featured in Surfer Magazine's January 1986 issue (Vol. 27, No. 1), highlighting their importance to collectors and surf aficionados alike. (See images) Due to their limited production and unique place in surfing history, the 1984/85 SurfSpot trading cards are considered extremely rare and highly sought after by collectors. Each card not only represents a piece of surf memorabilia but also captures the spirit of the surfing community that thrived in San Clemente during the 1980s. We ship our cards the same or next day, sleeved/top loaded and secured in bubble mailer padded envelopes ("7x"6x"1) with rigid cardboard (Hobby Armor) on each side of the card making every effort to insure your item arrives safely, timely and affordably.
