Our good friend Selim the Giant just received his exclusive wish by Shepard Fairy. Selim asked him to make a portrait of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the founder of the modern Turkey.
Now see Selim smiling while he receives the prints and decorating his office… Damn, I’m jealous.
But you also have the chance to win one of these prints! Check out the OBEY ATATURK Lottery here. Good Luck!

Burton has worked on another collaboration this winter season. The Alife NYC x Burton is based on the Burton 09 Custom board, but comes with a Sintered Base. The board comes in two sizes - 158cm and 162 cm. The board will not be sold at regular retailers; it will be available at ALIFE flagship and Burton flagship stores globally. It will deliver around Thanksgiving 08 and retail for $619.
As expected from Alife, the snowboard comes with a very clean design, good for today and for years to come. Look out for the release in the near future.
