Richard M. Nixon is escorted by RoboCop at a national board meeting of the Boys Club of America. The RoboCop character was on hand to call attention to Orion Home Video’s RoboCop RubOut promotion. Sweepstakes tickets, packaged with each “RoboCop” cassette, offer a number of instant prizes for retailers as well as $25,000 in donations to the Boys Club. The sweepstakes is part of a $3 million promotional effort launched by Orion in conjunction with the action-adventure film’s video release. The cassette will be available in video stores beginning Jan. 28 for a suggested list price of $89.98.
#OTD 8/22/1972 “But I can assure you, my friends, that the American dream can’t be fully realized until every person in this country has an equal chance to see it come true in his life.” President Nixon appeared at a rally held by the Young Voters for the President in Miami’s Marine Stadium. Sammy Davis, Jr. was the event emcee. (Image: WHPO-D0155-18A; D0353)
