“ORIGINS: THIS JOURNEY BEGAN IN SEPTEMBER 1986 WHEN I BOUGHT A THRASHER MAGAZINE WITH MARK GONZALES ON THE COVER. I’VE BEEN COLLECTING MAGAZINES EVER SINCE & OVER THE YEARS HAVE DEVELOPED A DEEP SENSE OF WANTING TO PRESERVE THIS FORM OF COMMUNICATION. IN 2015 I TOOK ON A PET PROJECT TO IMPROVE THE SKATE MAGAZINE LIBRARY AT LAUNCH – COMMUNITY THROUGH SKATEBOARDING. THAT PROCESS LED TO MULTIPLE PARTNERSHIPS WITH OTHER MAGAZINE LIBRARIES & COLLECTORS AROUND THE WORLD. I WAS QUICKLY SWIMMING IN DOUBLES & THE IDEA OCCURRED TO ME THAT I SHOULD CREATE A PLATFORM TO BUILD A MYRIAD OF OTHER LIBRARIES FROM THOSE DUPLICATES.” – Kevin Marks
