Comments: This display for back-to-school reference products used bright colors to convey the theme and message of the brand. The unit was designed to work as a floor display or as a power wing. The marketer has already committed to running the program again next year.

Comments: The "Let's Play School" display was designed to introduce a new video in mass merchants and specialty stores. Flexibility was needed, and this unit can accommodate 18,24, 36 or 48 counts of video product. Removable pockets and plastic hooks enable it to also offer audiotapes, stuffed toys and DVDs. Still, the unit was designed to fit in a shipper under 84 inches in girth. More than 14,000 units were sold in, doubling company projections.
