1983Best.-Nr. 9468Beverly Hills CA: Office of Exhibitor Relations and National Promotion 20th Century Fox 1983. First Edition. Original wraps. Near Fine. 8 1/2 X 11 Inches. 42 PP. Original stapled wraps. SCARCE original marketing plan from 20th Century Fox. Includes information on tie-in promotions with the film release by HI-C Playboy Rolling Stone Scholastic Toys 'R' Us Coca Cola Burger King and many more. In addition this marketing guide provides details on the licensed merchandise and contact information for orders etc. The merchandising side of the "Force" has always been strong and this guide lays out the final commercial attack to coincide with a Star Wars film in the 1980's! 20th Century Fox had no idea that the film would resonate so much with fans so when George Lucas agreed to pass up a $500000 directing bonus to attain merchandising rights it seemed safe for the studio to do. However Lucas who had seen the merchandising blitz that came with his good friend Steven Spielberg's Jaws understood the power that films had on consumers. George Lucas' imagination led to a licensing goldmine of action figures play sets posters board games books trading cards costumes and more. It's been 45 years since Star Wars hit the screen and the franchise has raked in over $29 billion in merchandise sales alone and still going strong. OCLC LOCATES "0" COPIES.
