A&B Creations

A&B Creations created the first Rocky Horror merchandise officially licensed by 20th Century Fox.
The company was formed in 1979 by Alba Cordasco and Betty Rice.
Alba and Betty were regulars at the Waverly Theater and the 8th Street Playhouse.
In early 1978, they began making home made buttons to help defray the expenses they incurred by going to Rocky Horror every weekend. They sold the buttons while waiting in line. The buttons proved to be very popular with Rocky Horror fans.
On June 26, 1978, they embarked on cross-country tour of the United States with the goal of seeing The Rocky Horror Picture Show in as many theaters as they could, making and selling their buttons at every stop.
They attended a performance by Tim Curry at the Roxy Theatre during his "Read My Lips" tour and presented him with a button.
In Spring 1979, 20th Century Fox granted them the license to produce and sell six Rocky Horror buttons.
The buttons were sold at various theaters, retail outlets and mail-order distributors.
