The Powell Peralta Caballero Dragon pin is the embodiment of one of the most iconic graphics (not just skateboarding, all graphics in general) of all time!
This timeless design will bring the haunt well into the 22nd century. As creepy as a skeleton bursting through something is, he looks kind of happy don’t you think?
n 1987 street skating was rapidly gaining popularity. Steve Caballero not only excelled at vert skating but was a top contender on the “Street-Style” circuit. Powell-Peralta decided to introduce an additional Cab deck model specifically designed for street. Artist V.C. Johnson created a new dragon graphic with a bats & bones background. Cab’s name was also created in the bat shape since Cab was into Batman at the time. The Powell-Peralta logo was made using the Animal Chin font, also a sign of the times.
You’ll be stoked as well once you slap this Powell Peralta Caballero Dragon Pin on your gear. From bland to boisterous, the simple addition of one accessory can give a burst of life to any piece of plain clothing or bag that needs it.
