When you look at this illustration, the first thing that comes to mind is “loss innocence.” But it’s not like we didn’t know that Disney characters gather in a group during their off time and bang each other–Paul Krassner and Wally Wood knew about it all too well. The year is 1967, and Paul Krassner just published the first issue of The Realist, an underground newspaper, which first release was in San Francisco.
At the time, Wally Wood was one of the most influential comic book artist in the US, he was also one of the Mad magazine founding cartoonists in 1952. Paul Krassner was so fascinated by Wood’s The Disney Memorial Orgy illustration that he decided to publish parody as a centerspread for his magazine. Years later, Boom-Art thought the illustration also belonged on a bottom of a skateboard and that’s how we have the brilliant deck we’re featuring today. Be sure to get your hands on one today!
