........anybody remember the ill-fated Sandy's Superlfy
from the late 1980s? That marketing campaign was an organizational
disaster. But the product was way ahead of its time.

Tom makes geezerish wheeze and replies "yes"........




I suppose the marketing was an unmitigated failure, as I google'd
"sandy's superfly" and got no image hits at all...

Since the World Wide Web didn't exist until the 90's that's hardly
surprising.

Yes, but there are plenty of things that are online which were introduced
long before the web was developed; even things which are no longer in common
use. I was thinking that there might be ONE site that showed pictures of
older flys, or one that described the fly. I mean, it was only 25 years ago.

I'm prone to agree with Sandy that the marketing must have been truly
disasterous. Can anyone point me to an image or description of it? I'm
genuinely curious about it.
