Happy Halloween from ABNRML!!

Flashback to 1990!  Our artist was doing some heavy house keeping and came across this old folder from 1990 and ABNRML's Los Angeles days.  Night of the Living Dead!  ABNRML used to print a lot for huge Hollywood premieres.  These old files are really neat because sometimes you get a glimpse of how things worked decades ago before art files were zipped up and shot through cyber space.  We have seen old screen films and positives like this from Superman, Aliens, Batman, Terminator 2 and a few others.  This little Halloween appropriate package was a nice treat so we thought we would post it!  Happy Halloween!
