All New 49 Kustom Cars Stickers (series II) |
We can assume the first series of Kustom Cars stickers was pretty successful becasue Barris sponsored a set of "All New" Kustom Cars stickers (see old wrapper on left). Like the originals, these stickers sold in packs with a stick of gum, but the price had doubled to 10 cents (wow!) There were a total of 49 "All New" Kustom Cars stickers. Fleer again integrated a "puzzle" with this series - - but for these puzzle pieces, the front was a sticker of a show rod, while the reverse side was a "card puzzle piece." These "series II" stickers used separate showrod stickers with checklists on their backs. This was a departure from the first series which used regular cardboard "cards" for the checklist and puzzle-piece combination. |
