A press kit often referred to as a media kit in business environments is a pre-packaged set of promotional materials that provide information about a person company organization or cause and which is distributed to members of the media for promotional use. Press kits or media kits as they are sometimes known are often distributed to announce a release or for a news conference. Traditionally the term "press kit" referred to a set of documents photographs and other relevant materials packaged together and designed to be sent to a newspaper or magazine as part of an organizations Public relations or promotional program. Recently as print media circulation and readership levels have been declining marketing and PR people have begun using the broader term "media kit" so that it now refers to any promotional material distributed to any media outlet.

192012893Akron OH: The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company 1920. First Edition. Staplebound. Near fine. Quarto 31pp. A crisp clean copy near fine in the publisher's blue stapled wrappers with rough-cut edges stamped in light blue and gold. Staples rusted but sound and the folding plate depicting the enormous Goodyear factory partly loosened from the binding but still attached and intact. Else clean and sound with a very faint flattened crease and contemporary penciled owner's name to the front wrap. An exceptional catalogue of airships blimps and accessories manufactured and sold by Goodyear; a century later still the primary American company associated with blimps. As the technology was so new to the public at the time of publication there are nearly a dozen pages devoted to describing the principles of airship aviation and mechanics. Models with specifications descriptions and photographs presented include UA Tein Motored Pusher UB Twin Motored Airship Type A Pony Blimp Type FA Tractor Type FC Pusher and Type V Airship. Other balloons described includekite balloons spherical balloons and gas containers.<br /> <br /> Airship technology was developed by Goodyear and Goodrich in cooperation with the US Navy at the tail end of World War I. As such this is probably the earliest comprehensive marketing document for airships offered by Goodyear or any American blimp company and we could not locate an earlier Goodyear trade catalogue for airships or accessories in OCLC. That database lists about half a dozen holdings mostly at regional non-specializing institutions except for two copies at the Smithsonian. <br /> <br /> Without prices or obvious ordering instructions this catalogue was clearly meant more as a "show off" marketing piece and it is quite effective as such even to the modern reader. There can be no question that the Hindenburg disaster of 1937 did much to kill this otherwise promising transportation technology. <br /> <br /> Scarce in the trade.
