Derann had been issuing trailers for its own titles and others for many years, although as far as I can determine they were all just single trailers. However in 1976 we released three trailers (The Creeping Flesh, The Sorcerers and Blood Beast Terror) on one 200′ reel and we gave it the clever title of Trailer Reel No. 1! It must have sold well, because in time at all we had released a further 3 reels in what would become a regular and popular series. There were numerous designs over the years, but this is the only example I have and is one of the earliest. Most of the labels graphics were lifted from the various sources, including the Ivy Films sales catalogue.
