PROMO CARDS
- To help promote the release of the film, many cinemas around the country worked together with Topps to distribute a set of 4 Garbage Pail Kids 'postcards' themed after the characters in the movie.
- These cards were made of rather flimsy paper material and were not stickers like official Garbage Pail Kids.
- Also, the art on the card was re-worked to look a little more like the character portrayed in the movie as opposed to an exact replica of the card image.
- The back of the postcards contained some promotional information and copyright text.
- I obtained these postcards first-hand when I viewed the movie back in 1987 and they have been part of my collection ever since.

MAGAZINE AD
- In an effort to get the word out to as many people as possible, Topps decided to advertise their movie release in a number of magazines.
- Below is a scan of the original, full-page magazine ad that was run prior to the original theatrical release of the movie.

MINI AD SHEET
- I also was able to obtain a rather unique item that dealt with the promotion of the GPK Movie...below you will see my 'mini ad-sheet'. 
- This un-cut sheet measures 11" x 17" and features 24 different 'mini-ads' of varying sizes. 
- These ads were used on the back of movie tickets to promote the GPK Movie. 
- What is particularly interesting is there are numerous different sizes of the ads - this is due to the vast range of movie ticket sizes.
- I only know of one other of these un-cut sheets to exist.
