label: Description (Brief)
content: Skateboard stickers have played an important role in skateboard advertising especially in the late 1980s and early 90s when small, independent skate companies were emerging. Skate companies used this inexpensive and visually appealing media to advertise their companies, board models, skate contests, and skate teams. The stickers were often offered free through magazine offers and at skate shops where the most sought after were kept behind the counter.
