30 Years of Garbage: The Garbage Pail Kids Story
30 Years of Garbage: The Garbage Pail Kids Story
In the 1980’s a bunch of underground cartoonists parodied a popular doll (whose name can’t be spoken).
The resulting commercial trading cards/stickers tapped into an international zeitgeist that was brewing in a young generation who felt that this product spoke to the revulsion they had for the corporate pop culture that was being fed to them.
Learn the truth behind the myth of The Garbage Pail Kids.
