Flower Power
Believe it or not, this was one of the most prevalent themes of the 60's. Flower Power was everywhere. I kind of liked seeing all of the colorful flowers scattered all over everything but even as a small child, I found hippies annoying, ignorant, and ridiculous. I'm so glad that I was born too late to have gotten sucked into that whole culture. They are the same culture who raised the generation that destroyed the American public school system but that's a tirade for another time.
On cartoons, stickers, summer shorts, and notebooks, their slogan was cute and entertaining and I do have fond memories of seeing it used for such things.
