Yes, in the 1980's. Can't remember exactly but I'm pretty sure I bought them while working at my first LCS which closed in April of 1987. I don't believe this was ever part of a promotion. They weren't known until after 1985 and the person I bought mine from said he discovered them in a Subway warehouse in MD (Baltimore?).
