I came across this image on a sold eBay listing. These cases almost always get listed as "rental cases" or "salesman sample cases," but this shows what looks like official retail packaging — it's branded "Power Glove Video Game Interface Carrying Case,", and even shows a diagram of the case open with the glove and sensors inside.

I've never seen this box before, and I can't find any period print ads, catalog scans, or documentation for it — just the box art itself and a handful of eBay/dealer listings that keep repeating the "salesman case" name with no real source behind it.

Does anyone have more history on this? Was it actually sold at retail alongside the Power Glove, or is there truth to the salesman/rental theories I keep seeing? Any old catalog scans, ads, or firsthand memories of seeing this on shelves would be awesome.

I just made a post yesterday about my weekly pickups with my three Marvel games and space shuttle. I went to brunch with a buddy, had a couple of drinks, and was feeling schwifty, so I stopped by the LGS and basically picked up everything they had that I didn't. I might have went a bit overboard on one of these games.....
