Bozo gives away Mattel Toys

August 25, 2009 By Mantooth In Uncategorized 1 Comment

I’m loving this 1976 press release about Bozo and Mattel, a lot of the things being given away are really collectible right now. Of course my favourite of the shot is the Big Jim P.A.C.K Beast that is front and center.

Look at that sweet Jack Kirby Goodness, all toy companies should have had the king do at least one package for them…
