Esso
Oil Drop
Man
Animated Printing
This unique animated key chain is one of those Flicker style devices (Lenticular Printing) that you move back and forth to see the animation. The cheap give-a-ways like the Cracker Jack prizes, cereal prizes, etc. used 2 frame animation. This is a higher quality 4 frame high resolution animation.
It is 1 ½ inches high and features the Esso "Oil Drop Head" Guy. He waves his hand up and down, and rolls his eyes around and moves his eyebrows! All the while, the bottom half alternates between a red slogan that says Happy Motoring to a blue and white area where the Esso Man stands. The quality 4 frame animation makes a smooth transition through the animation series.
The reverse side has a message in red, White and Blue that says, Compliments of Your Esso Dealer, and has a sharp illustration of the old multi-color Esso logo. It all is attached to a 4 inch metal ball key chain. This is one of the finest commercial advertising flicker badges I have ever offered. To see it in action on You Tube, click the Link Below.
