Here's an enlarged
Robert Laughlin SCD ad from
3/15/79, with some basic info about the
update from the previous year
(1978)...

Info on the actual release is really tough to find.
I still don't know if packs of
Fleer cards (with the updated ones inside) were sold by
Good Humor trucks, or if only the
seven new updates were somehow distributed by them?
Don't have definitive answers, so the ad is but a
partial glimpse into the marketing efforts that summer.
