Clint's cops on cassette


Clint's cops on cassette
Here’s another rare U.S. advertisement from Warner Home Video promoting Clint’s exploits as Dirty Harry and other cop outings. The advertisement dates from 1988, and was also used to tie-in with Clint’s latest (and final) Dirty Harry film, The Dead Pool which was being released later that year in the summer (13th July 1988). The tagline and advertising garb cleverly proclaimed ‘Now you can always find a cop when you need one’ and used the familiar Enforcer 'Harry with badge' photo which had been used previously before in Warner Home Video advertising campaigns - only this time it’s partially concealed by a bullet ridden steel plate effect. 
Below: Here is another magazine ad from the same Warner Home Video campaign, size 5" x 12"
