Original 1987 Hughes Markets paper grocery bag advertising the Miami Vice Action Spectacular at Universal Studios Tour in Hollywood, California.
The graphic promotes “50 Incredible Stunts in 15 Amazing Minutes” and includes an expired Hughes Markets coupon offering one free admission with the purchase of two adult admissions. The advertisement announces the spectacular’s July 4, 1987 opening, making this an unusual launch-era promotional piece.
A scarce crossover collectible for Miami Vice fans, Universal Studios historians, vintage theme park collectors, Southern California grocery advertising collectors, or 1980s television memorabilia displays.
Acceptable vintage condition with folds, wrinkles, handling wear, and visible discoloration or staining near the upper-right area. This is an original used paper grocery bag, not a reproduction. Please review all photographs for condition and measurements.
Hughes Markets was a family-operated Southern California supermarket chain serving the greater Los Angeles area, with a particularly strong presence in the San Fernando Valley. This bag represents an unusual piece of regional grocery-store advertising as well as Universal Studios Hollywood and Miami Vice memorabilia. Although Hughes operated stores in communities throughout Southern California, this bag does not identify the specific store where it was distributed.
