Hi Gang,
I would like to thank one of our long time members "SCT" who was kind enough to take time to scan and email me copies of Checkmate's 1967 brochure. This item is one of Checkmate's earliest promotional items, at least that I know of and that I've personally come across.
The brochure is black and white and fairly basic in that it was a just five pages with just a few pictures. I've worked over each page as best I can, attempting to clean it up and bring it back to it's vintage black and white glory. You will find all the pages posted in the gallery under 1967 Brochure.
The neat thing to me about this brochure, is it represents one of the very earliest promo items done by the company when it was just starting up. There was so much more to come as we all know now, so this brochure is a very neat little trip down memory lane, as well as a look at Checkmate's beginning.
I hope you enjoy it and thanks go out to SCT for his efforts.
