Biographical/Historical Note
Jeff Hoffman worked as a Merchandising Account Representative for the Los Angeles office of Sony Computer Entertainment, where he accumulated the materials in these papers as part of his job.
Scope and Contents
Materials document variety and extent of marketing efforts conducted by Sony Computer Entertainment (SCE). All materials in this collection were used for promotional purposes and then discarded; they were never sold in stores. The game titles represented were all developed by SCE exclusively for the Sony PlayStation 2 or 3 consoles, as well as the PlayStation Portable (PSP) platform. The marketing materials included in the papers direct their messages to two distinct audiences: the consumer and the retailers who sell the games to the consumers. Materials directed toward the consumer were to be placed at the “point of purchase” by the retailer.
