IndySchwag and Other Uncovered Treasures

schwag - (n.) the freebies they give out, usually promo items, etc.

so besides the obvious (popcorn bags, collectors cups), what would you expect to see in terms of IndySchwag when Indy IV comes out (hopefully) in a couple of years? What kind of fast food/Happy Meal toys would we like to see?

BTW, I went through a box of stuff that was in my bedroom, filled with stuff from 20 years ago, and I found a 'private screening' ticket for 'Raiders' dated May 30th, 1981 @ the Northpoint Theatre in San Francisco. I didn't go, I think I got this ticket after I saw Raiders, maybe a month or two later, at a comic book convention.

Also found clippings from newspapers, including the review from the SF Examiner, full page 'Starts Today' ad from the Examiner; trading cards; slick color 'press release' looking sheet of paper, with pics and 'Starts Friday, June 12, 1981' on the bottom.

It was pretty cool to find this stuff after all these years. Bet there's more stuff in the attic.....

Take care.
