About the Skull and Sword Artwork:
The Rodriguez "Skull & Sword" deck was the first pro signature deck graphic produced by Powell-Peralta. The graphic was conceived by Ray and Illustrated by V.C. Johnson with art direction from George Powell in 1979.
Initially released in two distinctly different shapes, a 10" x 30" "Widetail" and a 10" x 28.5" "Snub Nose” version. It came in "Brite-Lite" dayglo yellow, orange, purple and green. In years to follow, it was made in various different colours and a Powell-Peralta logo was added.
In 1983 Ray's signature was removed and replaced with a Powell-Peralta script logo. The graphic was also used for T-shirts and stickers.
