JEFFREY HALLERAN LOU BOYD Inside San Diego resident Kevin Marks’ home sits the world’s largest collection of skateboarding magazines. His enormous library spans multiple rooms, from floor to ceiling, with issues fastidiously filed by title, date and country of publication, ranging from the earliest independent zines all the way to last month’s Thrasher. It’s a passion project, certainly, but this collection is more than a mere hobby – Marks is on a mission to find and share with the world’s board-riders every skate magazine from history, to keep the scene’s print legacy alive. In 2020, skateboarding lives online. With millions of YouTube edits and dedicated social media channels, anyone looking to immerse themselves in skate culture need only turn to their phone. But back in the ’80s it was a different story. “My love of skate magazines originated from the fact that I grew up skateboarding in the middle of Kansas,” says Marks. “I felt very far away from the culture, but once I found [US publications] Thrasher and Transworld [SKATEboarding] and got subscriptions, they became my lifeline.” He moved his growing collection around the US for 30 years until 2015, when he decided to put it to good use by launching Look Back Library, a public archive allowing access to like-minded skate fans. “The primary mission was not have them sit in my home,” says Marks, who previously worked for a non-profit organisation promoting skating in Colorado, as well as singing and playing guitar in local punk and metal bands. “It was to build smaller collections and get them out to places where they can be read, like skate shops, indoor skateparks and skateboardrelated non-profits.” Look Back Library is no longer a singular collection but a sprawling community of libraries and exhibits all over LOOK BACK LIBRARY Flick through the past Skate enthusiast Kevin Marks owns the world’s biggest archive of skateboarding magazines, and now he’s sharing it with all of us Marks with his trove: “And this one’s about... skateboarding” the US. On his travels by van across the country, Marks has collected thousands of unloved and forgotten magazines from homes, as well as set up many exhibitions and repositories in skateparks and skate shops, both temporary and long-term. “I left San Diego in April 2019, thinking that I was going to build about four libraries, but I ended up creating about 30 in six months,” he says. “It has given me the chance to work on something I love, as well as the opportunity to meet and work with other skate nerds just like myself.” lookbacklibrary.org THE RED BULLETIN 19
