I did a search for these and found nothing. Growing up in So Cal, I remember seeing these stickers on cars in the 50's or 60's. Seems like if you traveled far enough south in Mexico, you had to have one on your car. I would like to find a reproduction to put on my single cab, just for fun. Any ideas, or do you remember these?
Thanks, Greg

Thanks ragtop. I searched their site and didn't find any. So, I emailed them to see if they knew where to look.

These days that's sort of an invitation to robbery in some parts...

Sort of like the AAA insurance stickers, saying "Hit me, I'm insured!"

That's what I had in mind. The 1967 one is the age I'm thinking of.
Thanks!

Well, I couldn't find any Turista stickers to buy, so I had some made up where I live.

I put a '72 one on my single cab and one of each on the '59 bus I'm working on. Photos are from the '59 bus. I really like the way they look.

Cool. I like it.
Looks like it would read "tourist" from inside the car.
"folio" means sheet of paper. Thanks!

Here's one on our '67 camper, note transcendental mind compass at center in other photo. It also has an Onward Thru the Fog sticker from Oat Willies, Austin, TX on the rear bumper but I would have had to move about a half pallet of floor tile to take a picture.
