About This Print
Jay Adams is a 2003 screen print published by Obey Giant in a first-edition run of 300, measuring 18 x 24 inches. The piece portrays skateboarding pioneer Jay Adams, rendered in Fairey's bold, graphic poster idiom. According to the source, the print was signed by Jay Adams, C.R. Stecyck, and Shepard Fairey, making it a collaborative portrait that bridges Fairey's interest in counterculture figures with the skate world. The image celebrates a subject drawn from pop culture rather than overt politics, treating Adams as an icon worthy of the propaganda-poster treatment Fairey uses across his portrait work.
