Ever since I can remember it The Simpsons has been popular and had varying degrees of merchandise. There is some other vintage merchandise that I have/had a purple Simpsons backpack with Homer and Bart on it, I have also seen a teal colored one with Lisa and Bart on it. I still have the backpack. A color your own poster set. You know those sets that come with 2 uncolored pictures of something and you get a pack of markers or crayons to color it. When I had got the set I had used up the little markers that came with it so fast. I threw the set away because I accidentally spilled food on them. Burger King camping promo toys I have the Lisa one I forgot I had it for a while because I couldn't find it for 2 years after I moved. None of the items mentioned in the blog are for sale.
The Simpsons Pencil Tin
It's metal and it's a little rusty. I don't remember exactly when I got it, but I'll say between 91 and 92. It came with three items inside; a Bart pencil, a ruler and something else I forget. As you can see since this is an earlier Simpsons item Lisa's clothes aren't the right color on the front she has red pearls and on the back she is wearing a blue dress. Bart is depicted with a blue shirt. I tried to get a picture/scan of the pencil but it didn't come out.

Simpsons Puffy Stickers
I forget when I got these too, but the are vintage pre-1993 for sure. They aren't in the package because I decided to put them in my sticker album. I have no idea if there were more than the ones I have in the album. I know I was pretty small when I got them because I couldn't read some of the words in the little dialogue balloons.
Since this is a scan from my sticker album you will see some non-Simpsons stickers like the poinsettia one, the rodeo one, the Dodger koala (who I can find no information on, but that's another blog for another time), and the Chef one. He use to be a mascot for Kid Cuisine.
The funny thing about the pencil tin and the stickers is that I cannot find them listed on the Simpsons collectors site. http://www.simpsonscollectors.com/
