Description:  A VERY RARE GUN!  FIRST TIME ON THE AUCTION BLOCK! 

 

This board is stylish and smooth from its looks to its tube riding capabilities.   Purely iconic.  Standing at 8’10, shaped by Billy Hamilton, this spear of a surfboard was crafted to perfection. When undergoing a glass-off restoration, Ed Searfoss was the go to guy and he did an amazing job.  His color work and glassing are superb.  Only about 12 of these boards were made with both logos combined, Herbie Fletchers “Arrow” and Billy Hamilton’s “Ace in the Hole”.   This is a VERY RARE GUN!.

 

 The deck is orange with the RARE COMBINATION logo “Ace in the Hole” up by the nose. Down by the leash plug the serial number -009- is by the center stringer and little further up is printed B. Hamilton.   The deck is outlined with black pin lines that gives away to a yellow rail wrap and bottom with a glass on multi color fin.  A true sign of the times.    This board was hanging in the North Shore Surf Shop in Haleiwa Oahu Hawaii before it was sent here to NJ for its debut.   At no reserve, utilize your proxy bids for this beauty because this Iconic gun is a keeper for life.  Good Luck!!
