Add Checklist

• Among the head and body set stickers were famous musicians and actors from around the world.
• The original version of this set in 1973 came out in pieces of gum with two stickers "wrapped" around the gum inside the wrapper. As the year went on, packs were also made with four stickers and a flat piece of gum. These packs were sold in Spain, Italy, Venezuela, Mexico, and Brazil. The 4 sticker packs contain three celebrities and just one head or body sticker.
• Printed originally in 1973 in Spain, a batch of these were shipped to Venezuela but sat untouched for nine years before Reyauca did a re-pack of the original stickers in 1982. The contents are vintage 1973 Hippy 2000 goofy stickers plus the celebrity stickers.
• The celebrity stickers that are possible inside are famous Italian, Spanish, South American, and United States musicians and actors. Included randomly are; Marlon Brando, Elvis, Roger Moore, Raquel Welch, Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Marvin Hagler, Sammy Davis Jr, Elizabeth Taylor, Liza Minnelli, Englebert Humperdink, Sophia Loren, Donna Hightower, David Cassidy, and many many more Italian and Spanish (European and South American) stars.
• Caricature artwork originally done by the artist Jose Luis Davila in 1973.
• Originally sold with gum, each package had two stickers wrapped around the 2 inch piece of gum. Each box had 48 pieces for small retail displays. Posters showed the original bodies that were to be formed by the head and body stickers but out of a box of 48 packs, a person was lucky to make a full person in the original design. It took two or three boxes of gum to make the full set on average.
• The rarest stickers in the set were the ones shown on the advertising poster. This kept kids and adults buying and buying the set to make the favorite "body".
• It was reported that representatives of some of the celebrities who were parodied in the caricature set contacted the printing company to ask that they not be included in any future sets. Parody and caricatures are and were protected as a form of speech and so no agreement was ever promised by Editorial Bruguera.
