Grape Origins...

First off, crazy video!

Second, the guy rocking the mask is Nick Paparone. I remember playing T&C Surf Factory on the original Nintendo while he babysat for me and his little sister. She wanted me to tag my neighborhood and listen to KRS One before I gave a shhh about things outside of G.I.Joe's. Basically, life-changing siblings.

Now her big brother is opening up public art galleries all over Philly, studying sculpture at Columbia, running PrintLiberation.com, and kicking major ass.

He's also co-authored a wonderful book entitled "Print Liberation."

We saw a copy at the Barnes and Noble in Midlothian the other day so we put it out in the open for all to view. Maybe it will change someone else's life the way it did ours.

It's a how-to for screen printing complete with brief histories, industry advice and instructions on how to make your own single color print press and printing station.

Shouts out to Nick for helping us get off the ground, even though he had mad work to do.

Help your friends and family when they need it. You never know what your assistance can birth. With us, it has birthed Grape - spreading fresh ish and positivity until the wheels fall off.

Peace to you and yours.
