1984: STAR WARS VIDEO GAME ADVERT

I've always loved this advert for the home computing incarnation of the STAR WARS ARCADE GAME, published on the back page of US comics in the latter part of 1984.  This scan comes from a November dated Marvel comic, which probably would have been on-sale in the States around September time.

It's such a great idea for a print campaign but - honestly - in those pre-Photoshop days, someone should have checked the guy's nostrils and extracted the rather obvious snot wedged up there!  Kids look for that sort of thing!
