This is an original 1980 “Galactic Battleships” store advertising display card produced by Diamond Vending Supply Co., Inc., a major supplier of coin‑operated vending and novelty merchandise during the late 1970s and early 1980s.

These perforated cards were designed to function as vending machine headers or countertop display backers, advertising capsule toys or novelty items rather than serving as packaging. The perforations allowed the card to be folded for upright display, not torn or separated.

This example remains unused (NOS) and measures approximately 10" × 8¾". There is a minor bump at the top right corner, visible only upon close inspection and not noticeable when displayed. Please review the images carefully to assess condition.

Produced during the post‑Star Wars sci‑fi boom, Diamond Vending Supply Co. released numerous space‑themed novelty lines to meet demand for futuristic imagery in retail and vending environments 🚀 Most display cards like this were discarded after use, making surviving unused examples uncommon.

This piece represents a surviving example of early 1980s retail sci‑fi advertising, originally intended to be seen from a distance in stores or vending locations.
