Hi Ho Dave,
My partner and myself designed the American flag
peace finger in 1969- Manhattan Beach Ca. The name of the Co. was the
Atomic Energy Group. Far out huh?
Need any further information? Glad to
oblige.
Have a good life-
Peace & Love
Doug
We designed the original first version.
It was designed to sell as a sticker. We started warehousing them and
shipping out of our garage. They caught on so quickly that pretty soon
we were renting three garages. As you can see by your lighter it made
it's way onto things like clothes objects Etc.. The final gift
show I went to in LA I counted 27 knockoffs in 20 minutes. We had
originally copyrighted it but it would have taken the money of Disney to chase
them all down.
In the beginning I had gotten tired of seeing all
of the regular flag stickers on cars, and police motor cycles.
Driving to work it dawned on me that what a good idea it would be to counter
this with putting a flag on the peace finger sign. So I contacted
Joe, a friend that had just graduated Long Beach State, with a degree in
graphic arts. We went through several versions and in about six weeks he
came up with the graphic fingers. We then designed a display box that
held 200 stickers. I took $1600. 00 and printed 50,000 stickers.
After 6 weeks there they were and the next question was what to do with them.
We talked a Hippie shop owner to take a box on consignment to see how they
would sell. After a week we trotted down to the store in Redondo
and the guy was all over us. He kept proclaiming that we had a winner
because he had sold all 200 and wanted more. We walked out dazed and
looked at each other and said What's a Winner? Finding out took us
on a four year journey. Both naive and with no skills in business we
chased this sticker and developed other items, some good and some bombs.
We never got rich but we both gained in experience and future memories.
Well Dave in a nutshell that's the real story
of the American Flag Peace Finger.
Joe lives in LA and myself in Las Vegas. We
are still best of friends and to this day we are still a little pissed off
when we see a knock off.
Heh Heh,
Peace and love, as it was-
Doug
