Promotion[]

Sgt. Rutter Napkin

The fabled Sgt. Rutter napkin

In lead up to release, Alfred Macaw himself partnered with around 6 local shop owners to distribute limited edition Sgt. Rutter printed napkins. The production of these napkins was supposedly meant to halt a few months after the release of the Sgt. Rutter super deluxe, though it is suspected that Alfred forgot to get back to the 6 local shop owners. As of 2023, the Sgt. Rutter napkins are still in circulation.
