- Carl Shipman Nottingham Bus Station Early Mid Nineties - My recent conversation with Matt at @welooksideways Podcast touched upon the subject of The System Magazine. - There were three issues of The System in the early nineties before @sidewalkhorse and I managed to get ourselves roles making the last ‘phase’ of @readanddestroy - Issue One had Sal Barbier at the first version of Mount Hawk Skatepark on the cover. - Issue Two had the Birdhouse team composed of Willy Santos, Ocean Howell, Mike Frazier and our stand-in for Tony Hawk, Frank Messman on the cover. Reservoir Dogs really was the film of the moment. - Issue Three had Bradley Garner liberating his legs in Milton Keynes on the cover. - Carl was a great sport and agreed to meet us at Nottingham Bus station for the cover of issue Four (which I guess would have been horizontal?) with our photo copied graphics and crazy ideas. But we ended up using the picture to announce our arrival at RaD in RaD instead. Thanks to all those involved at the time including Jonas and Smiggy. - #carlshipman #skatenottingham #busstation #readanddestroy (at Nottingham Victoria Bus Station) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cf8XbfasDsA/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
