Many of the items created for the campaign have become part of the permanent collection of the Smithsonian Institution. Merchandise sales included toys and Raisins images on nearly every conceivable medium: lunch boxes, notebooks, clothing, posters, bedsheets, and even a Halloween costume, just to name a few. A California Raisins Fan Club began in 1987, which included a "Grapevine Gazette" newsletter and various memorabilia. Blackthorne Publishing also released a six-issue comic book series entitled "The California Raisins 3-D" which included 3D glasses; these would later be re-released in the "Ultimate Collection" trade paperback.
