I posted this in the LA thread but decided to move it into a separate thread because I'm keen to try and get some feedback on it from fellow SWFUK'ers.
The Star Wars Multimedia Remedial Kit was released by Pendulum Press in 1978 for use in U.S schools. The kit was issued in a red box and included 5 copies of a comic that was specially produced as a reading aid, a poster, a filmstrip with pictures from the comic, 2 cassettes - one to accompany the film strip and one to accompany the comic, and, finally, the teacher's supporting material. You can find info and pics on this at the SWCA here: http://theswca.com/index.php?action=disp_item&item_id=20473
I have been looking for a complete copy of this for many years. As you can imagine it's not an easy piece to find. One is selling on ebay at the moment and is not even complete - http://www.ebay.com/itm/161982863284?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
Luckily I was able to find a different version of this but it is in a blue box and does not include all the pieces mentioned above. The box is smaller than the red one and has enough room for the comic, poster, film strip and one cassette. I'm chuffed to have found this and am happy if this is the only version I ever get but I'm intrigued to find out more about it. I can't find any reference to it on the internet, SWCA or my Star Wars guides. If anybody has any info on it I'd really appreciate it you could fill me in.
