60's Frosty Treat Dixie Cups

It's definitely winter in my neck of the woods, and I'm here to show you what things are sorta like with some similarly fabulous art renderings as featured on this (incomplete) set of 1960's Frosty Treat paper cups from Dixie. Gorgeous girl illustrations are unleashed in a frisky, frollickin', fantasy wonderland of ice skating, skiing, sleigh rides, archery, and horsebackin'! Apparently I'm missing the waving / sleddin' cup but I see there are plenty available online for sale, as well as a similar set of paper ice cream bowls with varying other delightful design schemes. So grab your moon boots, mittens, and scarves, it's time to bundle up and head outside for the cutest snowball fight you've ever encountered! And Happy New Years Eve, too!

Very nice illustrations, and again, I'm amazed how so much of these paper products survived. I'll never make fun of an episode of hoarders again!

Happy New Year's Eve, Karswell!

With all the red ink used on these cups they could have been mistaken for Coca-Cola advertising.

Happy New Year to you Karswell and all readers of AEET and THOIA!

Great two-color printing. I think I like the snowball cup best. HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Finally getting the New Year started with a funeral for a friend... hang tight it's on the way!

And Happy New Year to everyone, lots of stuff planned for 2023 so stay tombed...

Those are amazing. The art style is very familiar, comic book-ish. Wonder who did it.
