So Skately added an Ads category to their "Library" today, you can view it here http://skate.ly/library/ads/all/
If you aren't familiar with their Library, you can also browse through a ton of Brands, People and Videos from the last 30 years or so. http://skate.ly/library/

Why talk about it in third person?

Also with all due respect for the project/idea I personally don't find it overly useful unless you put some actual effort into it instead of copying descriptions off various websites, not making sure you have somewhat reliable sources. For one, as far as I know, there is no connection between Deathbox UK and the latter US brand.

It looks like we accidentally tagged an ad with Deathbox US instead of Deathbox UK. I think that is pretty forgivable and it should be fixed now. I know the site isn't 100% accurate, and may never be. We're just trying to do our best with a mix of personal knowledge and amateur research.

For the record, the two of us have spent hundreds of hours working on the library in our free time. Seeing it dismissed as a copy/paste job feels like a punch to the gut. I understand your third person spam-guard is up and you might think this is all some big scheme to sell more Tail Devils, but from the bottom of my heart, we do this because we love skateboarding and wanted a place to share what we've collected over the years.

Thanks for taking a look.

a bit of skate archiving never hurt anybody. I hope you cover the 80's to early 90's well.
