It came as flat die cut printed heavy paper sheets you would assemble with tabs and slots into a full head mask like the ones in the photo.(probably the homemade look is due to the limitations of this construction design). My brother even created a duplicate mask by tracing and cutting out the die cut sheets on plain white heavy paper, so we had an all white yogi mask too. I was about five years old then and am surprised how much detail of those masks stay with me.

It was also worked into <i>Wait Till Your Father Gets Home</i>. I'm sure the only reason <i>The Jetsons</i> and <i>The Roman Holidays</i> were spared was because those families resided in apartments. top_cat_jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06365510398800837335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-53991655401182461592015-10-28T18:17:57.064-07:002015-10-28T18:17:57.064-07:00Interesting way of pointing out that Where's H...Interesting way of pointing out that <i>Where's Huddles?</i> (which aired on CBS as summer replacement for <i>The Glen Campbell Good Time Hour</i> in 1970) actually reused plots and stories from <i>The Flintstones</i>.It's So Hanna-Barberaesquehttp://sohannabarberaesque.tumblr.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-36865462691774779822015-10-28T15:41:41.490-07:002015-10-28T15:41:41.490-07:00Hey, slap a football jersey on that Flintstone cos...Hey, slap a football jersey on that Flintstone costume, and you'd have the spitting image of Rhino's quarterback Ed Huddles (<i>Where's Huddles?</i>). Get a buddy to sport an ascot, carry a stuffed cat, and adopt a prissy demeanor for Claude Pertwee. Confound and exasperate your fellow partygoers while you explain the genesis of these uber-obscure Hanna-Barbera characters over and over, until <i>who? who? who?</i> is echoing in your ears. <br /><br />Yowp and everyone, have a happy, safe and apostrophe-free Halloween. top_cat_jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06365510398800837335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-62403624789921046312015-10-28T11:12:10.061-07:002015-10-28T11:12:10.061-07:00The cardboard Quick Draw & Huckleberry masks w...The cardboard Quick Draw & Huckleberry masks were Kellogg's mail-in offers. A boxtop or two and $ .25 or $ .50 were all you needed. They arrived flat and had to be constructed following the supplied instructions. There was a Yogi mask also.Don Parmelenoreply@blogger.com
