Title: TG16 retro button/pin...
Post by: Sparky on 07/10/2016, 06:02 PM
A buddy of mine found this button mixed with a bunch of other buttons today at a yard sale. Pretty F@cking cool if I must say as it is new to my eyeballs. Not sure how vintage it is but has this on the side ( see second picture) with that area code it's made in Canadaaaaaa!

Sincor Specialties Ltd.,  15 Densley Ave, Toronto, ON M6M 2P5  (permanently closed according to Google...)

Stating the obvious, but it looks like an Impossamole tie in...

Pretty cool.  I hope your buddy asked if they had any other TurboGrafx stuff!

Hell yes, wouldn't be awesome if this was an actual Impossamole promotion?

The font is the only reason for suggesting Impossamole, IMHO.

:)

Even if it isn't a legit item, I still love it.

Is it "Sincor" or "Stincor"?  Why would you ever name your company after this wretched villain?

Or a previously unheard of port of Awesome Possum.
