Stephen Emond
Covering almost 50 years of gaming history, Sierra Collector’s Quest is the definitive guide to one of the industry’s most influential publishers. At its peak, Sierra consistently topped sales charts and won over legions of devoted fans. This visual compendium was developed as a companion to the main guides – a veritable optical feast of Sierra’s signature advertising endeavors throughout the ages.
Mixed Advertisements
This special volume features 470 pages of painstakingly restored marketing materials from across the Sierra Multiverse. While the bulk were originally featured as Magazine Ads, this compilation also includes a variety of Promo Pamphlets, Direct Mailers, and Product Catalogs.
The Ultimate Collector’s Guide
Unlike the detail intensive entries found in the main Collector’s Quest series, this book was created solely as a whimsically artistic tribute. Each advertisement within is presented in a consistent and visually stunning 7”×9” format. Key identifying traits are included for reference without detracting from the core aesthetic.
Features
An extensive array of lovingly remastered marketing materials.
311 unique ads from Sierra On-Line & On-Line Systems.
13 countries worth of localized distribution spanning 4 continents.
10 years of unimaginably extensive research…
