1997.044.104Description
Two X Games postcards; on the front is a collage of four photos featured in the X Games; two of the photos involve bikes with the other two involving aggressive roller skating; both of the roller skating images show skaters mid air posing; each of the photos are separated from one another by white lines leading to a white square in the middle; in this white square is "X" in red and "Games / ESPN / espn 2" in black print.
Everything on the back of the postcard is in black print and there is a section where an address can be written as well as featuring a postage stamp area; in small print "Modern Postcard 800/ 959-8365" is written vertically; on the other side is the same logo as on the front, but with "winter" added to it, in an upper corner with the dates of the winter games next to it: "January 30-February 2, 1997 / Big Bear Lake, CA"; below the winter games date and location is information about the X Games overall: "We've moved our headquarters, but remained extreme. / ESPN X Games / 1845 Quivira Way / San Diego, CA 92109 / 619-523-7800 / 619-523-9096 fax"; at the bottom is the same X Games logo as on the front with the dates and times, of presumably the summer games, next to it: "June 21-28, 1997 / San Diego, CA".Collection
