Red K Products presents: Vintage Argus "Make Things Happen" Raccoon Plaque - A Retro Motivational Icon!

Step back into the hustle of the 1980s with this authentic piece of vintage office decor. Produced by the prolific Argus Communications, this "plaque mount" features a charming trio of juvenile raccoons peering from a tree hollow, accompanied by the legendary aphorism: "There are those who make things happen, those who watch things happen, and those who wonder what happened." Originally coined by Nicholas Murray Butler, this punchy version of the quote became a staple of American business culture. Permanently mounted on a rigid board with a textured laminate finish, this durable piece captures the "go-getter" spirit of the era and offers a nostalgic, ironic, or genuinely inspiring addition to your wall.

Perfect for:

• Lovers of retro 70s and 80s office aesthetics and "grindset" culture.
• Fans of vintage wildlife photography and Argus Communications prints.
• Anyone seeking a durable, ready-to-hang conversation piece for a workspace or den.
• Collectors of unique "plaque mount" formats that define late-20th-century decor.

Condition: This is a vintage item in used decorative condition. As typical for the era, the original paper print has been permanently "plaque mounted"—adhered to a rigid wood-fiberboard substrate and sealed with a textured, semi-gloss plastic laminate. While this irreversible process means it is not a "loose" poster for archival collectors, the mounting is solid, durable, and creates a unique, finished look that requires no frame. The surface features the characteristic dappled texture of the heat-sealing process.

Here's the list of contents:

• Vintage Raccoon Plaque: One (1) original Argus Communications print, permanently mounted on a rigid board (~21" x 14") with a laminated finish.
