Hanna-Barbera Ornaments

 It wouldn't be Christmas without a Christmas tree, and what good is a Christmas tree without ornaments decorating it? Today, I figured I'd show off some Christmas tree ornaments featuring various Hanna-Barbera characters. For the moment, however, I'll shed light on some of the more obscure ones. Later in the month, I'll discuss the Hallmark keepsake and Kurt-Adler ornaments you are probably more familiar with. Trust me when I say there are some really great pieces in those collections, especially the Hallmark ornaments! Now back to the lesser-known ones. First off, we have two sets of Flintstones ornaments released by a company named Bradford in the seventies. Have to say, I rather like the illustrations featured on these. 

Here's a better look at the ornaments. As you can see, both sides of the ornaments feature unique illustrations of the characters celebrating the holidays.

Let's now take a look at a set of ornaments based on HB's other most famous franchise, Scooby-Doo. These ones I believe to have been produced sometime in either the late nineties or early 2000s, due to them featuring the Cartoon Network branding.

Now, here's a set of several ornaments done by American Greetings back in the 2000s. One is a set of three, featuring Pebbles, Jerry, and Boo Boo. The second is another set, this time focused on different pairings of Flintstones characters. The last two are both based on The Jetsons, with one featuring George and Astro ready for the holidays, and the second showing off the entire family, ready to burst out of a monitor!
