A 1972 Movie Radio Spots Record (measures 6 3/4" x 6 3/4" [17 x 17 cm]; 45 RPM record) (Learn More) The Man, the 1972 Joseph Sargent political race relations melodrama ("It took an accident to make this man President of the United States."; "What they do to him now won't be an accident."; "THE HOSTESS, We've got a jigaboo in the White House!"; "THE AIDE, They'd love to find you in a motel with the village bimbo!"; "THE DAUGHTER, How the hell do you get out of the first family?"; "THE SECRETARY OF STATE, I should be President - not that black S.O.B.!"; about a black African American man who becomes President of the United States, and all the people that want him out; "Story and Screenplay by Rod Serling"; "Based on Irving Wallace's explosive best-seller" of the same name) starring James Earl Jones, Martin Balsam, Burgess Meredith, Lew Ayres, William Windom, and Barbara Rush. Note that in 1973, it likely seemed like pure fantasy that the U.S. would have a black President any time remotely soon, and yet in 2008, we elected our first black U.S. President, Barack Obama, so this fantasy has become a reality! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that there is something REALLY wonderful about this record! One side has the regular radio spots, but the other has special "ethnic radio spots", which were designed to be played solely on "black" radio stations (see our images of both sides)! Also note that this record is for "radio spots", which were sent to movie theaters to give to their local radio stations to get publicity for the about to be shown movie, and is much more rare than commercial records for those movies. The record is labeled with what the individual spots contain, so see our super-sized image to see what radio spots are included. Also note that the record is contained in a single paper sleeve. We don't know if it was originally sent in any additional packaging. The auction contains the record in a single blank paper sleeve. Condition: very good. We have no way of verifying if the record is playable, but it appears to be. Learn More about condition grades
