Description: Silver Shamrock Novelties was a toy company owned by Conal Cochran, a witchcraft-obsessed madman plotting to use his products to kill children during Halloween 3: Season Of The Witch. While this was perhaps not the best business plan, it was also not the best entry into the Halloween franchise, what with no Michael Meyers and all. Nonetheless, the movie happened and Silver Shamrock Novelties was born. This version of the design features a heavily distressed vintage imprint that looks like you may have got it while working at Silver Shamrock in the 80s.
Description: Night Flight was an online visual-arts magazine and variety television show that aired on cable TV from 1981 to 1988 before moving to syndication in the early 1990s.

Night Flight was also one of the first American television shows to present the music video as a serious visual art form rather than a mere promotional tool for musicians. Late-night broadcasts also afforded cable television the freedom to air portions of videos that other outlets had either censored or banned.
