I have never heard of this! I was a massive Garfield fan c. 1979-80 (I was 12-13 years old), and had a couple of plushes, posters, buttons and shoelaces. I still have my Garfield diary from back then.

Thanks so much for this interesting tidbit!

It was amazing how much Garfield stuff was available. This one is worth checking out even now (You can check it out of the Internet Archive if you have an account.)

Oh, cool, thank you for the tip! Yes, I remember being overwhelmed by the amount of marketing product for Garfield - the only thing comparable to me back then was Star Wars.
