TIE-IN WITH DELTA AIRLINES Oth kt EB SS DELTA AIRLINES, whose big jets appear in ‘‘Our Man Flint,’’ is cooperating with us on a maior tie-in and promotion. This was kicked off by a Delta-Fox junket of 95 press, radio and TV people from all areas of the country to Jamaica for the World Press Premiere of ‘‘Flint.’’ In addition, the counter card shown here will be exhibited in Delta sales offices throughout the country. Also, 50,000 point-of-sale folders featuring ‘‘Flint’’ will be distributed by Delta to their customers. Special screenings have been held for Delta personnel so that they can ballyhoo the picture. All Delta offices have been advised to cooperate with local theatres on mutually beneficial promotions.

Box 1911 Beverly Hills, California SPECIAL SCREENING PROGRAM THE BEST WAY TO SELL ‘FLINT’ IS TO LET ‘‘FLINT’’? SELL HIMSELF! And to let Flint sell himself, you can hold a number of Special Screenings for people who can be counted on to spread the word. ‘“‘Flint’’ is a great picture for young people, and if you have a college nearby, you should hold a special screening for the big men and women on campus. A screening should be held for local newspaper, radio and TV personalities, and for instructors in karate and judo clubs, the latter because James Coburn and Flint are accomplished in the Japanese martial arts. In fact, you should invite all the influential, talk-it-up people in your area. All you have to do is get the word-of-mouth started, and your man Flint will do the rest!
