I found these on the same blog as I found the Sears catalog stuff.

That second set is beautiful. I would like to see some posters of todays teams in that style.

I am in love with the Packers one. Reminds me of the 'Yellow Submarie'.

I agree. I wonder if its the same designer? There is a lot of great ones. Love the Steelers and the Raiders and the Falcon and Saits are Trippy cool. I wish they could track the names of the designers/artist for these. Raider one look Rockwell influenced.

Some of the stuff reminds me of Bill Sienkiewicz, who's mainly a comic book artist. But a lot of this is very similar to his work, especially the Browns, Chiefs, Vikings and Steelers. He's probably too young to have done these, though.

I remember the Steelers one as it used to be on the scoreboard at Three Rivers Stadium in that park's early years - it would be up when the Steelers played, and the Pirates logo would be up when they played.

Yes. That Fleer Sticker blog primarily focuses on baseball.
