Politics brings out the best and the worst in people, whether it is the candidates grasping for votes or the electorate themselves, but in any event, there is a great deal of fun to be had from watching the great democratic process in action.

One of the funniest aspects of the political arena is the number of political bumper stickers which make their appearance, not just at election time but whenever a “popular” politician is in office.

We should all be grateful for free speech!

So here is a selection of vehicular commentary on the political scene for your enjoyment:

George “W” Bush

Love him or hate him, George gave us more fun than any president since the last one.  Bushism’s litter the modern lexicon and here are just a few to cause a smrik or two:

• Bush – End of an Error
• Bush – Like a Rock, Only Dumber
• If You Can Read This You Ain’t Our President
• We Need a President Who Is Fluent In At Least One Language

There are so many more, but it’s just not fair to concentrate on Ole’ George, so let’s take a look at someone else.

Hilary Clinton

We could have take a look at her husband, Bill Clinton and “W’s” predecessor, but Hilary provokes the kind of right-wing ire that liberals feel with Bush;

• “Run Hilary Run!” – this was the best-selling political bumper sticker in New York because Republicans adopted it too – the difference was, they put the sticker on the front fender;
• Monica’s X-Boyfriend’s Wife for President

Now we could go on for quite some time yet, but in the interests of political balance, it is only fair we make sure every political figure get’s the same exposure.

President Obama

President Obama is suffering from what many president’s before him have experienced – a turn in public acceptance and approval after they get elected.  President Obama is in the midst of major legislative efforts with the financial crisis and getting a healthcare system established, and both these areas are fertile ground for bumper sticker aficionados:

• Obamacare – 9 out of 10 Illegal Immigrants Prefer It;
• Nobama (the ubiquitous play on words);
• HONK! If I’m Paying Your Mortgage
• So, How’s That Hope and Change Working Out for You?

Not to worry, President Obama still has another three years of office to run, so there is plenty of time to iron out the kinks in any humor argument.  At the next election who do you think will be running against him – Sarah Palin perhaps?

Ex-Governor of Alaska, Sarah Palin

Going rogue seems to be what Sarah is all about these days, after quitting as the Governor of Alaska, ostensibly to spend more time with her family (or plotting on the takeover of the free world by becoming the first female US President).

No stranger to controversy, Sarah provokes the best and worst in people:

• I Can See Russia from My House (no she couldn’t);
• Coldest State, Hottest Governor;
• I Wanna be Sarah’s Intern!;
• Pregnant Unwed High School Dropouts for Palin!

Model T - No Bumpers

The bumper sticker could not predate the invention of the motor car but, if you know that the Model T Ford was the first car to be mass manufactured and therefore it must have been the first car to have had bumper stickers slapped on it, you’d be wrong!

The Model T Ford had no bumpers!

Model A - With Bumpers

The first car to be adorned with bumper stickers was a Ford, the Model A which was introduced in 1927 and sometime between that date and the onset of the Second World War, someone cooked up the idea of the “bumper sticker”. Who this someone was is the subject of speculation and urban legend, though many ascribe the invention to a Kansas City entrepreneur, Forest Gill.

Gill was a printer and had formed his print company using his basement back in 1934. As the clouds of war started to loom, patriotic fever took hold and Forest came up with Gill-line, whereby bumper stickers, usually of the flag or a patriotic slogan, were held to the car bumper by means of wire. You simply twisted the wire to hold the slogan in place and untwisted to remove it when needed. Gill realized that a printed slogan with adhesive backing would do the job much more conveniently and switched to what we would recognize as a modern day bumper sticker.

After the war, with millions of people returning to normal civilian life, there was a spate of elections and political activity. Politicians soon grasped the marketing potential of the bumper sticker to get their campaign message across or simply their name, usually with a ballot box tick next to their name.

None of us would have any difficulty in recognizing these types of bumper stickers and for once, politicians had stolen a march on private companies looking to promote their own products. This quickly followed with a wide range of goods and brands being advertised on bumper stickers and the concept of a “viral” marketing campaign became established as a consequence. The idea behind a viral marketing campaign is to give something away which helps you to promote your brand but which not only the consumer who has the item, i.e. the bumper sticker, but also encourages and motivates their friends, family and connections to do the same – in fact anyone that sees one!

This brings us neatly to the Sixties and the free-love generation with hippies, anti-war protests and a time of civil and social turmoil in the country. The bumper sticker enjoyed a resurgence and renaissance in terms of use and the art and humor which went into their creation. Bumper stickers also became a whole lot more daring and risqué in terms of both imagery and language used, but it was both sides of the political, social and cultural divide which stretched the boundaries.

There is something to be sad about with the state of the bumper sticker today; there is something refreshing about reading “Better 2 Feet in NATO than a Cold Ass in Siberia” compared to “My Kid is an Honor Roll Student” . Not saying you have to agree with what a bumper sticker says, but there is no reason not to enjoy a smile at their expense!

Have you seen The Wizard of Oz? Right now you are probably thinking about that wonderful 1930’s Technicolor movie featuring Dorothy Garland. But we’d like you to think about an even more special production of The Wizard of Oz that just can’t be missed: The Oak Hill Grammar School Fall School Play.

Our school play isn’t just a fun activity for the kids and families, it is also a fund-raiser for the school. Many prospective parents attend our school plays to get a sense of what Oak Hill Grammar School is like. This is an ideal time to socialize with other parents and children and see what Oak Hill Grammar School is at it’s finest.

We decided to do something different this year to help get the word out about our school play. We made bumper stickers! Our custom bumper stickers came out great and had the school crest and the website url and telephone number. They also included “Come See The Wizard of Oz” and the dates for the play.

The PTA knows the bumper stickers were successful because as people bought tickets we asked them how they heard about the play. Quite a few people mentioned they saw a bumper sticker. Every school family was given several bumper stickers. Many families today are two-car families and sometimes children are driven by a grandparent some of the time. We wanted every family member that was excited about the play to have access to a bumper sticker.

And it worked! A number of Grandmas mentioned they were stopped after bridge games or exercise class to be asked about The Wizard of Oz. Moms and Dads were asked about the play at work or in town running errands. So many people had the bumper stickers that the local newspaper actually ran a story ABOUT our bumper stickers! They thought it was a unique way to tell the community about The Wizard of Oz play.

If we had to share our secrets to success they would be simple:

Get your bumper stickers out early. The more time you have available to you, the better for your school activity or event.

Choose complimentary colors. Bumper stickers not only should be attractive, but easy to read as someone is driving or walking past a car or truck.

Keep the font choices simple and clear. Again we wanted to be sure our bumper sticker was very legible. We got many compliments on our bumper sticker and know that people could read it easily.

Our bumper stickers were available in the school office and every teacher was also given some bumper stickers. The bumper stickers were distributed to children six weeks before the school play – so we had excellent timing on our side. Some parents and families requested more bumper stickers saying they had family businesses or additional relatives who wanted them. We know of one instance where a family business of more than a dozen vehicles added our bumper stickers to their vans as they made deliveries in our town and surrounding areas.

Bumper stickers were a unique choice but very ideal to communicate with the community about our school play. Especially as our school play is a fundraiser and often helps to attract new students, we wanted to be sure as many townspeople knew about it as possible.

Building a new children’s library is expensive and we’ve done a variety of fundraisers. But I would have to say that our 5K walk was one of the most successful – and it wouldn’t have even made it if it wasn’t for the bumper stickers.

One of our volunteers said, “Let’s do a 5K walk.” And everyone agreed. They thought it was a great idea. The best thing about planning a walk is that the expenses are relatively low and many people like walks today as a special event. It’s something you can bring your kids to or get the entire family involved in. For a children’s library, that’s a very important factor. We didn’t want to do a stuffy black tie dinner – an event where children were involved truly fit with our mission.

But we were having trouble with sign ups. With the library under construction, less people are coming. The parking lot is a lot smaller so fewer cars can park there. So even though sign up sheets and flyers are in the main library, we weren’t seeing families sign up the way we hoped. We realized because the library was under construction was probably the challenge we were facing. I was out jogging one morning and noticed the bumper stickers on my daughter’s car. She had one that was particularly funny that always made me smile. Then it hit me…people notice bumper stickers, so why not create one to promote our children’s library 5k?

Our bumper stickers were created quickly and they had our Readie the Owl mascot on them. We asked neighboring libraries to put them at their desks too so people could pick them up there. We gave them to volunteers and board members. We gave them out at the children’s schools locally. Soon everyone knew about the walk and our sign ups soared. We had more than a thousand people signed up for our walk. We were not only excited but a little nervous. It was our first walk and we were almost beyond capacity. These bumper stickers had really worked like a charm.

The 5k walk went well and everyone had a good time. The kids did a shorter walk and there were activities for them. The funds raised went to help build the children’s library. But everyone had such a great time and we had such a positive turn out we are thinking about making this an annual event. With library budgets what they are today, raising money to help the library can be very useful to help add programs and special events for the children once the library has been completed.

Our bumper stickers worked better than sending out a press release, making flyers or simply getting the word out in another way. With a local community event people notice bumper stickers on people’s cars. Whether at the grocery store, waiting to pick up kids at school or simply running errands that car helps to promote our 5k walk for the library. I know we’ll be using funny bumper stickers in the future for other library programs and events.

At Griffindale High School every year they hold a talent show. It’s something the kids and teachers alike look forward to. Students share their talents from singing, dancing, art and other skills. It is a creative night that everyone enjoys. But this year the talent show was almost cancelled. That is until custom bumper stickers came along to save the day.

The talent show is an annual fundraiser for the school. The school counts on ticket sales to help with school programs the kids look forward to – like the end of the year picnic. Many community members come to the talent show, knowing it will help the school. The kids do two performances – an early show and an evening show.

But this year the secretary forgot to place the ad in the local newspaper. The school was very concerned that the community wouldn’t know about the talent show in time to buy tickets. Without community members coming to the talent show, they simply wouldn’t sell enough tickets. The school might not have enough money to afford an end of the year school picnic and other nice things for the students.

That’s when one of the teachers suggested bumper stickers. By ordering them and giving them to students and families, the community would easily know about the talent show.  They came in full color and the school had many choices for fonts. The school could even add the school’s mascot to the bumper sticker. With the information about the talent show including the date and time – they were ready to hand out. Homeroom teachers were given one and each student was given several.

It wasn’t long ‘till cars were spotted around town with the colorful funny bumper stickers reminding everyone about the talent show. The school’s phone was ringing and ringing with community members wanting to buy tickets. They were a success!

The school parking lot was filled with cars proudly wearing the talent show bumper sticker. Both students and parents alike thought they were great. Not only was it in the official school colors but it had the school mascot on it – the eagle. The teachers had bumper stickers on their cars too. Many commented they were asked about the talent show while about town, and everyone knew about the talent show. It was such a popular event that people were glad to know it would be happening soon. They were excited to buy tickets and go to the talent show and support the school.

The day of the talent show came and both shows were completely sold out. The principal and teachers smiled, knowing they would have plenty of funds to afford the end of the year school picnic and other nice things for the students during the school year. The talent show was yet another success. Even better – the bumper stickers cost far less than the advertisement in the newspaper! So the principal and school knew they could count on them for the coming year. When you find something successful like bumper stickers – you should just stick with it!

The Middleton Lake Elementary School was looking for fundraisers and we considered many options. We were looking for one that many people would want to participate – and especially one where entire families could join in and enjoy. We looked at a number of fundraisers and finally decided that a charity 5k walk a thon was the ideal choice. A healthy fundraiser was perfect to encourage children to be physically fit as well as raising money for the new school gym.

Our biggest challenge seemed to be letting families know about the charity 5k to encourage them to sign up and also support families that were walking. We just didn’t have a budget that would support lots of costly advertising. We chose to make bumperstickers promoting our charity 5k and they were a great success. The school office and every teacher had bumperstickers available for parents and families to take and put on their cars. We also gave bumperstickers to a number of the local businesses that supported our walk a thon, like the local deli that donated snacks and drinks.

I think one of our most successful choices with the bumpersticker was that we had a contest with the kids to design it. The top designs were voted on blind – so students didn’t know which other students created them. The best design was selected and announced at our kickoff for the event. It was something that generated a lot of excitement. Even though only one child won, many children had fun designing for the contest. This is something I know we’ll do again because the children had so much fun with it.

The bumperstickers were a great success! After the first week of giving out the bumperstickers – we had to place a new order to get more bumperstickers. It seemed that everyone wanted one for every car the family owned. Some were also giving them to grandparents and other family members – like as a thank you gift for supporting them as a fundraiser for the walk a thon. This was just terrific. Every time we saw the bumper stickers around town we would smile and know that more people in town were being informed of our charity walk a thon. Our dreams of building a new gym were finally coming true.

Things got more exciting when we got a call from the local newspaper. They’d seen a bumpersticker on an employee’s car and asked if they could do a story about the walk a thon. The newspaper was at our school for nearly an entire day, taking photographs and talking with teachers. The newspaper article was a terrific boost to everyone who worked so hard on this event. I know for a fact we wouldn’t have gotten that newspaper article without those bumperstickers.

The day of our walk a thon was momentous. We had quite a crowd. Hundreds of families came out to support their school. Even people that didn’t have kids came out to support the school. It meant so much to us. The walk a thon day was a terrific day. We raised nearly $25,000 after we paid our expenses.

The bumpersticker was such a success with our supporters that we decided to do a thank you bumpersticker saying “I Supported” for everyone. We gave these out at the end of the walk and mailed some of them to the larger contributors. This bumpersticker was just as popular as our original bumpersticker.

Ever driven along in the commuter traffic with your mind somewhere else only to look at the bumper sticker on the car in front of you and think, “A Ha!”.  As Forrest Gump’s mom said about life and chocolates, the same applies with bumper stickers – they are all around us, but with every car journey you take, you never know what you’re going to get.

Bumper stickers are the repository for the nations self-expression, which is why we see so many stickers proclaiming “My kid’s an honor student” or something of that ilk.  The real nuggets, what we like to think of as the real bumper sticker equivalent of fortune cookies, are those stickers which catch you at that precise moment in time when you are attuned to the message they are sending.  Usually, it’s a humorous message which grabs you but it isn’t always the case – there are some deep and meaningful bumper stickers out there if you open your eyes and your mind when you’re on the road.

Some fortune cookies which have impressed us include:

“I’m an intellectual and I have the bumper sticker to prove it”

“Run Hillary, Run”

(fixed to the rear of the car if a Democrat and the front if a Republican)

“I’m an atheist, thank God!”

Bumper stickers resemble fortune cookie advisories but for different reasons: they are both made up of throw away lines, sound bites in fact.  They are by necessity, brief and short because they impart a strong message using very few words, practically performing the same function as poetry – expressing ideas rhythmically with as few a number of words as is possible.  Imagine what would become of a bumper sticker line if it was matched with verse: certainly the result would be very interesting, but this is also where bumper stickers beat poetry because you only have time to see a snapshot of a line and not an entire verse.

The successful bumper stickers which feed the brain are those which have just enough of a hook to attract your attention and make you think just that little bit extra.  This applies even if you are a redneck driving your truck with the oversize mud wheels down the road:

“No mountain too high, no ditch too deep”

We challenge anyone to say that is not as deep and meaningful as something such as, “Minds are like parachutes; they don’t work when they’re closed”.

Bumper stickers are far more prevalent in our society because they are so widely used, much more so than fortune cookies and yet, the latter has more of a place in our cultural lexicon.  We find this very strange given the impact bumper stickers have in our daily lives but perhaps our familiarity with them has led to some relative contempt.  Bumper stickers are clearly much more valuable and far more likely to bring a grin to your face or provoke a thought in your brain than any fortune cookie.  Unlike fortune cookies, what you are likely to read on a bumper sticker will also have far more relevance to what is happening in your life and immediate future than any proverbial claim to expect to become rich in the future.

Perhaps the trend towards combining fortune cookies with bumper stickers is a salutary nod in the direction of just how important the latter has become in our lives:

“Your eyes are telling you – Keep your eyes on the road moron!”

There are many uses for bumper stickers. One of the most popular today is to create personalized bumper stickers for schools. Parents, family members and friends are proud to have bumper stickers that say something great about their child and the school they attend on their vehicle. It is an easy way to brag about their child and share their accomplishments and success.

Schools can also use bumper stickers as a way of letting the public know about the great programs they have and the achievements of their students. These bumper stickers as they are seen on the road, grocery store and other places let people know just how wonderful the school is. Whether it is a public or a private school, these bumper stickers can only serve to boost the morale and image of the school. It can also increase enrollment as parents want to learn more about this great school they’ve heard about from bumper stickers.

One of the reasons bumper stickers are so popular is they are easy to produce and are fairly inexpensive. It is something that is quite practical to give to parents and families as a small gift. There are other promotional items that are a lot of fun – like t-shirts – that can be much more costly. Best of all, with bumper stickers they are “worn” every day, rain or shine.

A popular bumper sticker for schools is proclaiming that “My Child is an Honor Student at (name of school).” This is something that any parent would be proud of – to have a child on the honor roll. A child who achieves getting on the honor roll is obviously smart. So the school is praised for encouraging and nurturing smart children and helping them to succeed with this bumper sticker.

There are many ideas for school bumper stickers. You aren’t limited to just an honor student bumper sticker. Remember there are many achievements in school and lots of student successes. Sometimes one of the best student successes is participating in a student event. Like a talent show or school fair. If your school has a talent show or a school fair, why not create a bumper sticker for this event? That would easily be a popular bumper sticker for parents and their children.

Another excellent choice is physical fitness. Many children excel at physical fitness. Or they like to participate in a particular sport. Create a bumper sticker for children who excel in gym or who participate in a health day at the school.

The best bumper stickers you can create are ones that make parents feel good about their children and children to feel good about themselves. Some ideas might be to give away less bumper stickers – say for example to all of the students in the school band. Not every student plays a band instrument. But playing an instrument is a great accomplishment and it says something nice about your school that you do have a band and instruments for the children to play.

Bumper stickers get an A+ from schools as an ideal choice to give to parents and families.

We can say a particular bumper sticker has a great tag line, something funny which makes us smile; there may be a great design which catches the eye; it can be promoting something emotive, such as a political or religious viewpoint, or it may be something completely unconnected with any of these factors.  Answering a question like this is very similar to giving a precise answer to “how long is a piece of string” – we don’t really know, but what is reasonable is that a good bumper sticker touches us in some way on a human level.

The majority of bumper stickers are of the humorous variety, and what makes people smirk, smile or laugh has never been defined or quantified, certainly with no more success as anyone may have with herding cats!  Typically, what qualifies as a good, funny bumper sticker is that they are short and punchy, usually very personal (as in the words, “I”, “my” or “your” being used a lot) and they have popular appeal.  It’s a rarity to find a high brow joke on a bumper sticker, but there again is something of the characteristic of a good bumper sticker – you have a highly visible sticker on one of your most valuable possessions, so you’re certainly making a statement and probably you want it to be a popular one.

There is another characteristic which we commonly see with bumper stickers – they are highly personal.  How many times do you see a sticker proclaiming, “My daughter is an honor roll student” or “My son is a US Marine”?  If we have something to say, especially if we are proud of it, there is little better than a bumper sticker to tell the whole, wide world.  Well, perhaps there is the internet with Facebook, but bumper stickers have been around for a lot longer than the internet!

Sticking with the personal theme, another characteristic of a good bumper sticker is that it appeals to our emotions.  Bumper sticker themes are rarely unemotional, usually they are the complete reverse and little else is guaranteed to raise an emotional reaction than politics or religion.  No surprise then that many bumper stickers promote political candidates and parties, or take a stance on religious views in both a positive and negative fashion.

It is wrong to think that bumper stickers are “throw away” philosophy and the product of junk or pop culture.  Many bumper stickers are thought provoking – they need to be because their brevity requires the reader to make some leap with their imagination to get the point.  While the standard, “I Love NY” leaves little to the imagination, many bumper stickers do represent a brain teasing experience as in, “If You Can Read This – I Can Slam on My Brakes and Sue You”.

We can summarize the key features of a good bumper sticker in three words – personal, emotive and short.  There cannot be any such thing as a “long” bumper sticker because the car bumper is too small or the lettering will be unreadable.  The challenge is how to make your bumper sticker demonstrate your personal attributes in an emotional fashion, and how good a sticker is really comes down to how well it provokes that emotional response with a punch.

If you are looking for a fun investment for the future, then a bumper sticker is probably one of the few collectibles you can focus on and which will cost you less than five bucks.  If you want a good example just try to find the all-time classic, “Honk if You Believe in Jesus!” – an original sticker was sold at a New York auction house for a cool, $1 million!  There is a rumor that the fortunate seller immediately bought a new bumper sticker -  “Laughing All the Way to the Bank”.

Sticking with the Christian theme – another bumper sticker fetched an even higher $1.2 million, the 1968 “Have You Prayed Today?”.  Bumper stickers started life as mobile advertizing gimmicks and rapidly gained traction in the political sphere, and like today, religion and politics are very much entwined despite separation of Church and State.  Many of the political bumper stickers of the Fifties were produced by religious supporters who also hopped on the popularity of the bumper sticker with their own religious message.

One aspect of collecting bumper stickers is that frequently, buying the sticker actually involves buying the car upon which it was stuck.  It’s not unusual for bumper sticker aficionados to be paying way over the odds for a classic automobile, not because the car has the value but because it is the bumper sticker!  A slight twist on this, is that some cars actually carry several bumper stickers and it is their combined value which makes buying the car worthwhile.  One vehicle fetched just over $700,000 at auction – the value being in the bumper stickers fixed to it and no the wheels. Next time you are buying a car, make sure you check out the bumper stickers on it and see if you are going to bag a nest egg!

Falling down from the dizzy heights of these numbers, the majority of bumper stickers coming to auction or market are fetching sums between $10,000 and $25,000.  This is still a very hefty increase on anyone’s investment when bumper stickers may have cost a few cents.  The market is actually quite active, though recently it has suffered a drop in both activity and average prices achieved because of the economic downturn.

One question is if you are buying a bumper sticker today, which one is most likely to be valuable in the future?

Good question, and the honest answer is we don’t know, but there are some tips which if you follow them, are likely to improve your chances of hitting the jackpot. Go for popular bumper stickers which are likely to be used, i.e. people are buying them and sticking them on their cars.  Though popular, most of these stickers will ultimately end up in a breaker’s yard.  Keep your collection in safe and protected conditions.  Don’t use them so they are in mint condition – sure, some collectors will buy the car if they are stuck on a fender, but a mint bumper sticker will be valued more highly and you will find that keeping a sticker on a car will cause you a headache when you want to get rid of the car!
