Kurt Adler's Hanna-Barbera Christmas Ornaments

 Back at the beginning of this month, I shared a menagerie of Hanna-Barbera ornaments throughout the years. However, I purposefully left out any by Kurt Adler and Hallmark, as I felt there were enough from them for posts of their own. Now, I think it's time to look at the Hanna-Barbera collection of Christmas ornaments from Kurt Adler. From what info I could find about them, these appear to have been released in or around 2005. Let's start off by looking at the series they made the most ornaments for, The Flintstones! First, here is a set of Fred and Barney, with the pair sporting some festive apparel. Also included in their Flintstones collection are ornaments of Fred dressed as Santa, Fred with Pebbles in arm, Fred in his Water Buffalo hat, and a set of mini ornaments featuring the major characters (except Betty, for some reason).

While Kurt Adler's line of Hanna-Barbera ornaments represented The Flintstones pretty well, their ornaments of other franchises left a little to be desired. Of the other Hanna-Barbera characters, the only ones beyond The Flintstones that they covered were Yogi Bear, The Jetsons, and Tom and Jerry, and none of them got quite the attention the Stone Age family got. That's not to say there weren't any gems among these, though. I quite like the first Jetsons ornament pictured below, featuring Astro and Elroy celebrating the holiday spirit. Also part of this assortment are two ornaments of Yogi and Boo Boo, a Tom and Jerry piece, and a kind of strange-looking Rosie the Robot. Something about her mouth makes her look like she's stuck in a constant state of terror. Not very jolly if you ask me!
