Product placement on TV

Post by dodgepu1946 »

Anyone else noticed some nice snap on tool boxes in the backgrounds on tv? Abby on NCIS has a nice one in the garage set. I believe I've seen one in the background on NCIS LA too. Last night I saw one in the garage during a rerun of King of Queens. Anyone else noticed this?

Does Snap on actively promote this? Or do the prop department guys just have good taste?

i can tell you for a fact that it is no accident - the product promotion people actively work with producers and advertisers to place Snap-on product in these shows.

History Channel's, American Restoration, has frequent shots of Rick's nice 80s vintage Snap-On boxes.
