Political labels, political bumper stickers and decals have come a long way since the mid-1940s, acknowledged by the New York Times as the beginning of the modern era for one election mainstay, the bumper sticker.
Today, full color weatherproof political labels can meet just about any shape requirement, quantity, budget and deadline. From “I voted” stickers to messages supporting/calling out a candidate or cause, political labels continue to be a fixture in US politics.
In contrast, according to the Times, print shop owner Forest Gill’s first bumper sticker was cut out by hand using two new technologies, self-adhesive paper and Day-Glo paint. Notes the Times, “Ever since the automobile age began, drivers had advertised their opinions with handmade placards tied to their cars with bits of twine. Gill realized that he could make ‘bumper signs’ forever obsolete…By the 1960 presidential election, bumper stickers were everywhere, rivaling buttons as a favorite way for voters to declare their intentions.”
Today, they still are a customer favorite, along with their AnyShape® labels and decals brethren. Unlike buttons and other political labels type of products, stickers, labels and decals can adhere nearly everywhere, flex and bend as needed, give designers complete artistic freedom, and present full color impact without breaking the bank.
