Movie ad from the Trenton Times, October 19, 1980

1 April, 2016 Sean 2 Comments "Times Square"

    Well. This was in the local paper Sunday, October 19, and since I wouldn’t have clipped it before I’d seen the movie, Kurt and I must have seen it either opening night or Saturday. I remember we’d been looking forward to the New Tim Curry movie, and I

Another Full-Page Times Square Teaser Ad

12 March, 2016 Sean 0 Comments "Times Square"

The same ad as last time, this one appearing on the inside front cover of Circus No. 248, dated October 28, 1980. As the ad is for a movie opening October 17, the magazine must have come out before then. Either that, or it came out bursting with hope as

Tiger Beat Vol. 17 No. 2, November 1980

2 March, 2016 Sean 0 Comments "Times Square"

      The November Tiger Beat also came out before Times Square’s October release, judging by the full-page teaser ad that ran on page 29.     In fact we can narrow down the date it came out to sometime between the releases of the first two singles from

Canadian Movie Poster

21 February, 2016 Sean 0 Comments "Times Square"

The movie poster for Times Square in Canada is almost identical to the U.S. poster. In fact, it is a U.S. poster, with two white stickers affixed to the bottom, one covering the American “R” rating barring under-17’s without a parent or guardian, and the other adding the Canadian “R”

Times Square Soundtrack Promotional Video

22 January, 2016 Sean 0 Comments "Times Square"

Apparently, in 1980, RSO sent this videotape to record retailers to play in-store to promote the soundtrack to Times Square. It features the two songs performed in the film, “Your Daughter Is One” and “Damn Dog.” The fact that the lyrics to “Your Daughter Is One” consist primarily of curse

Forward Into The Past

15 December, 2015 Sean 0 Comments "Times Square"

Back issues of Screen International are surprisingly hard to come by. That’s why I’m posting this so far out of the chronological order I’ve been trying to adhere to… I didn’t have this until last week (as of this writing). And I don’t even have the entire issue; I just

Trade Magazine Soundtrack Ad

7 December, 2015 Sean 0 Comments "Times Square"

Just like the title says, this is an ad for the soundtrack that ran in 11 x 14 industry magazines. The first one was laminated for display by the person I purchased it from; the yellow border may not be part of the original page. The back is solid yellow,

AFD Campaign Pressbook (pages 7-20)

12 August, 2015 Sean 0 Comments "Times Square"

The remaining 14 pages of the AFD Campaign Pressbook consist of the poster reconfigured to fit every imaginable size of newspaper movie advertisement. I’m not posting all of them (because webspace is neither infinite nor free), just enough to give you an idea. The back cover gives a contact at

AFD Campaign Pressbook (pages 1-4)

25 July, 2015 Sean 0 Comments "Times Square"

“Newcomer Robin Johnson is a revelation as Nicky…”   The Campaign Pressbook from Associated Film Distribution was a promotional tool for theater owners. The first part repeated almost verbatim the biographical articles from the Press Materials folder, but supplied them in a format with illustrations that could be sent directly
