Warner Bros. Press Kit for The Rutles

In 1978, Warner Bros. Records produced a very thorough (and amusing) press kit to promote the upcoming release of The Rutles, much of which is written by Derek Taylor (former Beatles press agent) and Eric Idle himself.

Through the courtesy of Paul Allen (pallen@cnmw.com), the entire Warner Bros. press kit is reproduced here. It contains an in-depth series of press releases and seven 8"x10" glossy stills.

Below are thumbnails of the 8"x10"s. Click on the thumbnails for full-sized versions.
