30 September, 1960: Meet The Flintstones

It was the 30. September, 1960 when we meet for the first time “The Flintstones” and their prehistoric, nevertheless so modern looking world. The cartoon series, produced by the Hanna & Barbera Studios, was a parody of the American lifestyle of the sixties and it’s representation in television, featuring typical “Stone Age technology” like a woolly mammoth used as a vacuum cleaner or Fred’s brontosaurus excavator.
