This so-called perpetual calendar, which appears this month at TASCHEN Publishing, shows a wide selection of photographs and grafic art of bygone beach culture. And not only for one year, but forever. At the end of the year, simply turn back to the beginning, and keep the adventurer in you alive! Simply the perfect wave! Be inspired in your home or office every day. Lets get surprised by surf adventure in the world of beach and fun. Admire the surf culture’s timelessness. TASCHEN editor Jim Heimann is known for its unique publications of architecture, pop culture, and the history of the West Coast.
“Each day of the year is marked by its own stunning picture, offering a constant source of inspiration, and being a gorgeous work of art in its own right. Perfect!” — Image Magazine, Dublin, Ireland
