Arlo's Rolling Zine

Back in 2002, Arlo put together a skating zine called Rolling. This was underground style, black and white Xerox copied on white paper, folded in half and stapled. I don't think there was any distribution, maybe a few made it outside SoCal but I doubt it. There were a few advertisers, most of which are no longer in business of course.

The content is pretty random. You'll find a bunch of good pics from Jess and other photographers, and a few crappy pics from Arlo and his disposable camera. There's an article about this old television channel called BlueTorch, which really hated rollerbladers back in the days and no longer exists. My favorite section is the Mark Korte quotes, the old USD team manager with the gift of gab.

He released a very limited run, maybe a few hundred or so. Of course, I have one in my garage and figured I'd share it with you. There's some large jpgs linked form the thumbnails, or you can download the PDF I scanned in at full res.

Awesome stuff law, do you have any higher res pics? I can't read most of the articles cause the text is too small. If you pass me along some higher res ones I can put them together in a PDF for ya.
