Can anyone tell me about these boards?

[cjtroiani]

I came across 2 custom surfboards in my garage... I was wondering if anyone could tell me anything about them and maybe their possible value?

The first one is by Gordon & Smith. It's a longboard (9'0") and it reads "10015 Masi.Saili. 9'0" x 22.0 x 2.75 for Rod.Piazza." and has a signature on the center fin. See pictures below:






The second one is by Kaysen. It's a shortboard (6'8") and it reads "6'8" x 19 x 11.5 x 14.25 @ 2 3/8 for Henry Sieck" and appears to be signed by Chis Kaysen with "#654 / 7-92" written next to it. See pictures below:







Thanks in advance! And pardon my ignorance

Masi still shapes surfboards here in San Diego, Masi Saili surfboards. The fin is just a Fins Unlimited fin, they used to sign them that way, they are here in Encinitas too.

The last one looks like a local shaper called Chris Kaysen. Don't know him, but did find hin with a google search: http://www.manta.com/m/surfkaysen

Hi cjtroiani, welcome to Surfing Waves!

I wish I had your garage, where I'd stumble across boards I didn't know were there.
This isn't your garage by any chance?

It's my parent's garage, actually. Haha

Still hoping someone can tell me about what they might be worth... Any ideas?

The longboard is a vintage gordon and smith, but in bad shape. I would ask $350 but settle for $200.

The shortboard, again, is not in good shape and is not considered a collectable or classic board, so I would start at $100 and get whatever anyone offers you.

If anyone should know the price of boards, it's you tmt
