Mail-In Premium From the 1994 The Shadow Movie

When The Shadow movie was released in 1994, there were all sorts of movie tie-ins to go along with it.  For example, there were The Shadow board game, jigsaw puzzle, and action figures.  If you bought two action figures and mailed in the proofs of purchase, you would receive a free Shadow Agent hologram ring!

I happened to find one of these mail-in rings on eBay and quickly purchased it!  (I was secretly hoping I could wear it, but it is definitely made for kids!)  Here are pictures of the ring.

The Shadow hologram

"Darkness/Evil" symbol

"Light/Good" symbol

I'm sure this was a grand prize for any kid that wanted to be an official agent of The Shadow!

According to what I found on eBay, here is what the symbols on the ring mean:  "The symbol that looks like a check mark represents all that is dark, not just in ones heart but in the world as well. Evil abounds in everything and it is only a safe balance that makes us men.  The other symbol represents the light or good. The ring itself is a representation of our daily struggle to quell the evil in all of our hearts and to cultivate the good. The check mark or dark symbol should be worn to the outside of your body whatever hand you wear it...away from the heart in other words."  Now this is according to one eBay listing so I do not know the source or if it is accurate - I'll have to keep researching!
