Give me a couple of mins and I'll dig up North America sales for you...

Edit:
Here's a pdf link from Fred Meloan...a poster that used to toss up
excellent sales unit stats; I think he retired. Crank up the zoom, scroll
and it will answer most of your questions on indiviual X sales by year.

Thanks for the props...time on my hands, a fading but still decent memory of all the stuff I've read
on this Board, etc.

Speaking of The Shell Answer Man: one of my best & longest time friends on the fookin planet
is The Original Shell Answer Man! I kid you not, as ol'Jack Parr used to say.

A pic of he, (Bob Bush), his wife, my CEO & yours truly at their daughter's wedding this past November.
Small freakin world!

Yes...Bob was the orig Shell Answer Man: the guy that stood there in the white lab coat and did the voice overs.
He got the gig while on a lunch break: he was overheard talking by a producer, who liked his voice. He showed up
for a test/audition on a lark. Got hired, did a dozenish commercials. The residuals were not what they are today.
I did not know him then, but we met & worked together since '80 and he is one of my best buds on the planet.

His wife Marlene, next to him in the pic, also had a bit part in the Aliens movie: she was the lab tech, early
in the film, with a close up, who screams at the realization that the Alien creatures are still alive.
All that and 2 bucks will get any of us on the subway...
One cannot make this stuff up.
