looking through a bunch of crap to sell that my girlfriend had acquired, i found this box for a snap tight Charlies Angels model. The box had been cut apart, and when i went to throw it out, i noticed a contest ad on the front. I'm a fan of looking at old prizes from contests, because winning a 1978 AMC seems funny for some reason. Anyway, this contest gave away 20 Fairchild Channel F systems. Thought some of the historians on the site may get a kick out of this, i found nothing about it from a search.

here are some scans of the boxtop, logo and entryform!

That's pretty cool to see, I never thought the Channel F had much promotion, but to see a contest for it is pretty cool.

Thanks for posting that!
