The Book Shed

Crease to top of the front cover else a good copy of Vermont Life's first cover story on snowboarding. At the time snowboarding was a young sport which was to have a tremendous influence on the ski industry and therefore the state of Vermont. The front cover shows Louis Fournier of Quebec competing at the 1982 Snow Surfing Championships held during February in Woodstock VT. Inside are 2 articles, the first by Majorie Ryerson, reports on the Championship organized by Paul Graves, credited with helping to originate the sport. The second, by Morgan Heusller, concerns Jake Burton Carpenter's shop, then in its 5th year of operation. Photos accompanying both articles and the cover are by Richard Howard. Plenty of other great winter related articles and photos, including the Great Benson Fishing Derby, which originated down the road from The Book Shed. Most items ship with tracking numbers and (generally over $15.00) jacket protectors if applicable. Clean recycled packing material will be used when possible.
