This is an amazing picture showing George Lucas, Gary Kurtz, and Bernard Loomis meeting to discuss the licensing agreement reached between them for rights to produce Star Wars toys, games, and other products.  Bernard Loomis was president of Kenner Products from 1970-1978.  Its great to see that from humble beginnings come galaxy sized results!

This is what the original announcement looked like in a trade magazine.  Its kind of crazy to think in todays “connected” world with the marketing machine churning at full speed what news like this would look like today.

Thanks to PlaidStallions!
