Velzy "Gidget" foam board 9'3" 1962 (8) (Lot of 2)
During the early 60's, Dale Velzy was recognized as the most prolific board manufacture. This particular board is basically a stock Velzy with 3/4" redwood stringer and high density foam fin. What makes this board unique is that it was adapted for use as a prop board for the "Gidget" series. In particular, for "Gidget Goes To Waikiki". Signed by Velzy, it has had all dings and dents repaired and glossed and polished. An interesting piece of Hollywood surf history.Comes with a 72" X 24" "Gidget Goes Hawaiian" promotional banner, which in itself is ultra rare.Pre-auction estimate: $3000-$5000.
