Sonic Gibson Greeting Card

Tags: United States Card Vintage

This oddly specific card is from Gibson Greeting Cards. It has a nicely shaded hands-on-hips Sonic on the front, with checkered background. They've added reflective sunglasses to the art...which looks slightly odd because Sonic only really has 1 eye. It says "Happy Birthday Nephew"...which likely didn't help it sell all that well because that's rather specific on who you can't give it to. The inside says "He's a hedgehog with an attitude, A sneakers burnin' cool dude--Let Sonic put you in the mood for a zoomin' movin' birthday! Have a Supersonic Day!" In typical greeting card fashion, it sort of rhymes. The edge of the card being die-cut to shape gives it added interest. This was found at a game store in Pennsylvania in the 1990s. It is uncommon.
