Vintage Patriotic Bicentennial Fred Flintstone Barney Rubble Stickers 1975 made by Hanna Barbera
3 1/4" x 2"~
The Flinstones was a primetime show on ABC that started in 1960. Hanna-Barbera's characters were often based on real-life personalities and it is widely believed Fred's inspiration was based on those of early television's Ralph Kramden of The Honeymooners and Chester A. Riley of The Life of Riley.
These are absolutely amazing and such historic pieces. These were likely made for the Bicentennial, which could not have come at a better time for our country as it healed so many wounds from decades of strife from the Vietnam War, Civil Rights Movement, Watergate, and a general feeling of malaise that had settled in since the Kennedy assassination. A neat history of how this was put in motion and how much effort was behind it can be found here:
These stickers are becoming very uncommon for obvious reasons. I have trouble selling the last of something, and I am going to have to break my rule and keep a pair of stickers from each of the 6 different sets I am listing. Please note, with old stickers, the adhesive is the first thing to go, so if you plan to affix them to something, they are going to need assistance, aka glue.
My pictures seriously don't do it justice.
The vintage stickers are a reminder of a bygone era. Museums and Art Institutes have galleries dedicated to them, and more and more collectors are seeking them out to preserve their history. Once the limited supply for sale is gone and on display with collectors or in galleries, then they will be very difficult to acquire.
Imagine this amazing vintage advertising hanging as home decor in any room of your home instead of a museum!
