15 Bumper Stickers To Spice Up Your Next Traffic Jam

Pretty much since cars were invented, people have been putting custom messages on them. Bumper stickers are so old they actually predate “the bumper” as we know it. Before 1927, when the Ford Model A introduced the world’s first bumper, people would tie homemade “bumper signs” on their cars, sharing various slogans and messages with the world. Then in the mid 1940’s, Kansas City printer Forest Gill came up with the first self-adhesive bumper sticker like we have today.

They were a hit. Bumper stickers were popular for advertising products and promoting political candidates. Eventually they evolved to become more personalized, reflecting the driver’s personality and quirks. Because after all, who better to share your most personal beliefs with than a bunch of random strangers in other cars?
