1979 Fruity Cocoa Pebbles Pencil Holder Calendar Kit

I've gotta purge The Flintstones out of my system!! hahahahaha. But seriously, I do like The Flintstones, but I don't like all the little odds-&-end that have collected like dust bunnies around The Cave so cleaning house is a priority and these, along with a bunch of others being posted here, were just sold on eBay a couple of weeks ago.

Here we have two different pencil holders/calendars featuring a head-only Fred and Dino on top of a pencil holder which also has space for a calendar cube underneath. Not having continued with my cereal premium collection I never knew how many of the Flintstones characters were on these holders but a quick search of the internet only showed these two - however there may be more.  Enjoy! Opa Fritz and Oma Bettina

 The Fred holder is 2 3/4" (6.98cm) H and the Dino holder is 3 1/8" (7.93cm) H

Under Fred's base it's marked "HBP Inc 1979 '7' "

Under Dino's base it's marked "HBP Inc 1979 '13' "

The paper cubes (there are two) are meant to be punched out of the surround and assembled into tiny cubes which fit into the opening behind the holders.

1970 Fruity Pebbles Flintstones Car

Wow, it's been nearly two months since my last Flintstones post, my how flime ties (my play of on words  for 'time flies') when you're having fun :-). This Fruity Pebbles Flintstones car was a nice precursor to the series of dinosaurs they put out in the '90s. These cars are a little tough to find and often times are missing the steering wheel but they definitely are a nice addition to any Flintstones collection. Enjoy!
