Spalding BMX Advert


Spalding BMX Advert 1987 R.a.d MagazineOJs, Slimeballs and Bullets for on £3.50! Skate T Shirts for £9.50 and complete Santa Cruz boards for around £60? I’m not sure what was going on there. Most of the advert was devoted to BMX, naturally enough, with complete bikes such as a Diamond Back Pro “Similar to Harry Leary” going for only £159, down from £289. January sales were starting early even in 1987. You could even pick up a pair of Vans for £35 and this was in the days before Vans were a high-street name.
