Flyers

[TAY666]

I would like to have some kind of flyer / handout to have on one of the display tables. And also on the table out in the hallway that is is full of flyers every year.

Only thing is, I'm not sure what it should contain.

Basically, what I am thinking of is one page, black & white (to keep printing cost down), probably two sided.

So, any suggestions on what it should contain.
I'm looking for help and input from all of you to design this thing.

Well, here is my progress so far.

I like it so far!!!!
Any idea yet as to what will lie below the graphic? Are you thinking of more pics or words or a mixure of both? And, will this flyer be folded in half?

Mostly text.
Talking about the series and it's history.
And about checking out the display at the show.
As well as the link to my website to learn more.

I want to gear it towards the casual fans, or people who don't know anything.
Get them interested and curious about it.

So far, here is what I have for a rough draft fo the text. Tweeks and suggestions are more than welcome!


In 1971 Aurora introduced the first 8 kits in the Prehistoric Scenes line.
The following year, they added 6 more models to the series.
By 1975 there were 17 kits in total. Including the huge Tyrannosaurus Rex!
The whole series was snap-together, and molded in a wide variety of colors.
Each kit featured movable parts, historical nameplates, and extra pieces for variety.
And best of all, they all had modular, interlocking bases. So you could display them all together.

This year, at Wonderfest 2011. You can see them all on display.
The whole set, built and placed together the way they were meant to be.

That's not all. You can also see the original boxes, instructions, rare original Aurora
promotional materials. And some prototype pieces that never made it to production.
If that wasn't enough. There will also be examples of some of the new 'add on' kits.
These are garage kits meant to expand the line, or augment existing kits.

Come take a walk down memory lane. Check us out in the dealers room.
Relive the childhood memories of building and playing with these awesome pieces.

Brought to you thanks to several fans in the modeling community and
the great people who run this show.
