Lime, blueberry, watermelon, and grape translucent plastic transform cordless phones, CD players, a Vivitar camera, and Caller ID into the ultimate 1999 Y2K color statement. This original period advertising piece brings back the brands, prices, packaging, and shopping rhythm of its era. It feels like unfolding the paper and finding the section everyone wanted first. Display it, browse it, or preserve it as a wonderfully specific piece of everyday nostalgia.
The 19-page “hip hues” catalog features VTech, Audiovox, Conair, Vivitar, and Southwestern Bell products before expanding into fashion, toys, home, and general merchandise. The cover is exceptionally displayable and instantly tied to late-1990s industrial design. Transparent electronics provide crossover with iMac-era aesthetics without requiring an Apple connection. It is a standout for Y2K design, translucent plastic, telephone, camera, and Target collectors.
Printed sale dates run from September 5 through September 11, 1999. Brightly colored transparent plastic became a defining consumer-design language in the late 1990s. Electronics that had once been beige or black suddenly became playful lifestyle objects. This catalog documents that trend across multiple everyday technologies in one coordinated Target campaign.
Used vintage condition with a center fold, light edge and corner wear, page waviness, and handling/storage marks. Bright cover graphics remain highly displayable. Please review every photo carefully for exact folds, pages, writing, tears, edges, and overall condition.
