The Hardee's records (and subsequently all other records) are pure vinyl which are used at 33 1/3 rpm on the turntable. No "McDonald's Quarter Pounder" song promo cardboard versions here!
And we'll spend some time covering the various GREMLINS ripoffs (i.e. Ghoulies, Munchies....etc., etc.). 
And by ALL MEANS...we'd LOVE those clippings! I'm gonna direct you to PM ThrowgnCpr so you can get his address and mail those clippings directly to him. When you mail the clippings, please put them between two pieces of sturdy cardboard so they don't wrinkle during mailing. Then use a padded envelope (the kind with bubble wrap on the inside). Approximately, how big are the clippings? It sounds like they are large.
And we'll remember you for helping out.....
Kind Regards,
