The PC Museum has a copy of a full-page advertisement for the VIC-20 on sale cheap, along with their "free" custom Game Pack, which I know is a collectible to some of you here.

This is the exact sale under which I bought my first VIC-20, and the rest is history...

I love these old adverts. I wish I could find the newspaper ad which inspired my dad to think about buying my first Vic.
I've got one of the Canadian Tire tapes that were offered here a while back. I have a friend from Canada and when I mentioned the tape to her recently in the pub she was so excited because I was the only person that she'd met outside of Canada who'd even heard of them. It's her birthday on the 8th of this month... I think I might print out a copy of this ad for her!
Thanks for sharing bloke.
