Multiple Packaging and Branding

I believe Sticca was a division/subsidiary of Coburn.  I believe Coburn packaged their designs under Uni-Cal!, Slicker and Fantasticcas.  I also believe they packaged their designs under other company names and possibly sold the designs to other sticker packaging companies.  


American Sticker used Sticca Designs.  I have never seen a set of American Stickers that were not Sticca Designs.  The set shown below has 6 different 3" X 4" sheets in each package and each package varies.

Amscam  

Armadillo Brand 

Cute Things are 8 cm X 10 cm.  They are on off-white paper.  These prisms are of poor quality:  they are not very shiny, the images are sometimes slanted on the sheet and the cuts are not neat.  I have never seen a Cute Things sticker that was not a Sticca design.

Divine Sticker Creations

Fantasticcas: were produced by Coburn Corp. in Lakewood, N.J.  Anything packaged in a Slicker Sticker package is a Coburn sticker and on this blog. These are all Sticca designs.

Prizms
were produced by Jewel Stickers of Bayshore Products, Inc., Largo, FL.  Each sheet is 3" X 4". 

Selectra International Designs, LTD. from Bronx, NY made vending machine stickers.  They also packaged hanging "Prisms" - the packaging looks like a Uni-Cal! or a Slicker.  Look for the post showing items from the Selectra Vending Machine Catalog in this blog.  It is my opinion that every Selectra sticker has a Coburn number, thus every Selectra sticker is appropriate for this blog.

Slicker Stickers were produced by Coburn Corp. in Lakewood, N.J.  Anything packaged in a Slicker Sticker package is a Coburn sticker and on this blog.

Staley:  These stickers were vending machine stickers.  There was a Staley Corp in Wayne, NJ and a Staley-Passaic company also in NJ.  They are packaged under the name U-Seal-It or Staley-Passaic. 

Star Bright Designs from Freehold, N.J.  These sheets are 3" X 4".  I have found two designs that have cut numbers.  I am not sure if all their designs are Sticca designs

Twinkle Stickers were packaged by Imperial Toy Corporation, Los Angeles, C.A.  Each sheet is 3" X 4" and is sometimes printed on Kodak paper.  Sometimes the paper is unmarked.  Sometimes Imperial used Sticca designs.  Imperial also used a lot of Decal Specialty designs, which are not included in this blog.

Uni-Cal! were produced by Coburn Corp. in Lakewood, N.J.  I've also seen packages with an address in Quebec, Canada.  Uni-Cal! sheets can be 3" X 3" on light beige paper, or 3" X 3" on white Kodak paper (rounded edges), or 3" X 4" on light beige paper, 3" X 4" on white Kodak paper, or 2" X 3" on white perforated paper (Unique).

Unique All these designs have a Coburn number.  They were packaged in Uni-Cal! packaging or in vending machine card folder.  They are all sized aproximately 2 3/8" X 3".  You can identify these if you see a corner or a number sticker on the mod, that is blank or says "Unique" or "Staley-Passiac" or "U-Seal-It" instead of the number. 

BJ or Decal Specialties:  I can't tell if Decal Specialities borrowed Sticca designs or vice versa.  Some designs are exactly the same between the two and some have slight differences.  Shiny Stickers are packages like Decal Specialities, but the some of the designs look like Sticca.

Various Vending Machine Stickers:  These stickers sometimes are printed on Kodak paper.  It is my opinion that every sticker with Kodak paper is a Sticca design.  Sometimes they are foils.  Sometimes they are from Selectra.  Sometimes they are poor quality, like the margins will be large and not closely cut.  Some of them were rimmed in gold.  They come in a cardboard sleeve and are approximately 2.5" X 3.5" in size.
