In 1994, the Academy Award winning film, Forrest Gump depicted its own version of how the smiley got its start. In one of the scenes when Gump runs across America, he is given a T-shirt from an down-and-out T-shirt salesman. Gump wipes his face, then, hands the T-shirt back to the salesman. The dirt soiled shirt reveals a imprint of what appears to be eyes and a mouth. Thus, the smiley is born. Fact or fiction? This account, of course, is purely fictional but with the movie's setting in the 70s, its appearance was quite apropos. At that time, the smiley was the symbol of peace therefore providing encouragement along with its happy face.
In actuality, there is a connection to a shirt but the smile did not come out of the dirt. The smiley's first appearance in pop-culture was on a sweatshirt as a result of a promotion by New York radio station WMCA in 1962. Much like the iconic smiley it had two dots for eyes but the smile was crooked instead of full and was void of the creases in the mouth.
Many claimants have stepped forward to register the first smiley. The most popular, which is also considered the iconic smiley, was created by Harvey Ball in 1963. Ball was a freelance artist who created the smiley face to be used on buttons, desk cards and posters. He completed the smiley in less than 10 minutes earning $45 for his design.
Through the years, the smiley has mirrored many faces, happy, sad, loving, mad, quizzical, whimsical, with the list going on and on. There are 2-D versions, those in 3-D, animated and gyrated. Did you know there is even a smiley dictionary?
A yellow button with a smile
Two dots representing eyes
Satire of a happy day
The image that never dies
Two dots representing eyes
Satire of a happy day
The image that never dies
Smiley faces in all kinds of places
Over, under, all 'round town
Feeling low, keep your head high
One is surely to be found
Two parallel vertical lines
Atop a quarter moon
A circle wrapped all around
Bright as the sun at noon
A happy face in a somber place
Warms the hearts of those near
Contagious smiles swiftly abound
Shifting the atmosphere
Two tiny circles round
Above murky shadows that loom
A nifty smiley face
Upon the craters of the moon
Above murky shadows that loom
A nifty smiley face
Upon the craters of the moon
