Phaidon präsentiert "Palace Produktbeschreibungen: The Selected Archive", das offizielle gedruckte Archiv der Online-Produktbeschreibungen von Palace Skateboarding. Seit ihrem Debüt im Jahr 2013 haben die unkonventionellen Beschreibungen von Palace - die oft wenig oder gar nichts mit dem beschriebenen Produkt zu tun haben - eine kultige Fangemeinde gewonnen, die jede Zeile mit Begeisterung liest.

Die Beschreibungen des Palace-Mitbegründers Lev Tanju, der mit seinem unnachahmlichen Stil das Regelwerk für Werbetexte auf den Kopf gestellt hat, sind voll von Humor, Pathos, sozialen Kommentaren und unverblümten Meinungen. Auf praktische Details wird verzichtet, stattdessen wird eine Jacke beschrieben als:

TRENDSETTER
DON'T THINK SO MATE
YOU LOOK LIKE YOU MOONWALKED THROUGH TOPSHOP
WITH YOUR EYES CLOSED
COVERED IN GLUE

Die mehr als 3.000 Beschreibungen, die hier zum ersten Mal gesammelt und so gedruckt werden, wie sie online erscheinen - ein paar Zeilen in Großbuchstaben, formatiert als eine Reihe von Aufzählungspunkten - sind in 22 augenzwinkernde Kategorien unterteilt, darunter Anatomie, Tiere, Etikette, Philanthropie, Romantik und Reisen. Der Text ist mit Fotos von begehrten Palace-Produkten unterlegt, und die Kapitelanfänge zeigen ehrliche Bilder aus dem Palace-Archiv, die hinter die Kulissen blicken.

Dieses witzige und ehrliche Buch, das gleichzeitig ein witziges Toilettenbuch und ein ernsthaftes Werk für den Kaffeetisch ist, ist eine unverzichtbare Dokumentation eines Online-Phänomens.
