Sheet of advertisements for TIMES SQUARE (1980), for theater owners to place their theaters and showtimes for placement in newspapers.
 

 

Here are two 11″ x 17″ sheets of readymade art to be inserted into your newspaper ad with the name of your theater and the showtimes alongside or below, These are essentially the same as the ad negatives and pages 7 through 20 of the AFD Campaign Pressbook, except they were distributed as individual loose pages. It’s interesting how many variants of the tagline they came up with to fit into the ever-decreasing space.

It’s also interesting that except for the two largest layouts, only the top two billed cast members are listed. Robin’s picture is there but not her name.

This post was made possible through the generosity of my Ko-Fi supporters. Thank you so much! Go Team RJ!!
