After a year hiatus, Capitan rolled out the red carpet for Smokey Bear Days. This year they, along with the rest of the nation, they celebrated Smokey’s 75th like it was a once in a lifetime celebration. Below are photos taken by members of the SBA that attended.
Pictured above is what is thought to be the rarest Smokey cookie jar in existence. Speaking of Smokey food, below is a picture of a box of Smokey Bear ice cream. The boxes still exist but no ice cream is know to have survived.
If you get a chance to read one of these great comic books you will see that they are nothing like the usual Smokey Bear stories. They have great plots, story lines and the artwork is fantastic.
