Subject: Can anyone help name the 80's sticker collection...
Written By: JT1972 on 08/06/05 at 10:11 am
I had a sticker book that I thought was called "Hello Dolly"; however, I can't seem to find a trace of it on the web anywhere.
Basically it was a paper sticker book filled with pages of girls in different settings. There was a spring, summer, fall and winter scene, a slumber party scene, a scene of what appeared to be girls in their int'l dress...The stickers were pieces of clothing, shoes and heads. They would be sold in packages (like sports cards) and you would collect all the pieces and stick them in the book according to numbers. I had almost had it completed before the stickers went off the market. I packed it up and saved it for years; however, lost it in a flood about 15 years ago. :\'(
Hoping someone can help determine the name...

Yeah, they were paper and once you stuck them that was it. I really wish I could find one on the net somewhere....

What exactly are panini stickers? Is that a brand name? I'm not sure who made the stickers but they did come on cards in sealed packages.

Panini is the Italian brand for the collectable stickers which was founded in 1961 and first started with football/soccer collections and later became popular for stickers based on movies such as Star Wars. http://www.paninionline.com/collectibles/institutional/bt/uk/

I had a dozen Panini sticker books in the 80's (ranging from Thundercats to Star wars to anything) and all the schoolkids used to trade them in the school playground. Very cool... and cheap!

I'm holding a 1983 Panini, Masters Of The Universe sticker book right in front of me now. It was basically stories from the actual cartoon like Diamond Ray Of Dissappearance etc with animated photos with some blank numbered squares in some spots for the apropriatly numbered stickers to go in. Unfortunatly i never managed to collect all the stickers back then, but a lot of the squares are filled though. I've kept & looked after this sticker book the whole time & i remember even when my folks wanted to throw it out many times, i never let them. I'm so glad i did hold onto it. Ahhhhhhhh the memories :\'(

Thanks for the website - Checked it out but couldn't find what I was looking for.
It certainly seems to have been made by these people. Hopefully someone will prove I'm not dreaming :(

O.K. so it looks like we threw away my daughters stuff or it's been tidied away so well I can't find it. Anyway when browsing here I found reference to a toy called colourform which sounds a bit like you were describing.

googling colorform finds loads of pages. The original version isn't quite like I was picturing but the themed sets are similar to my daughter's
