Product placement originates back to its film debut in the 1800's. In the film titled "Défilé du 8e Battalion" (Girel, 1896), a wheelbarrow displaying the Sunlight Soap logo and accompanied by a tuxedoed Lavanchy —Clarke, is placed in the foreground between the camera and the parade. The business of product placement had begun. Source: Institut Lumiere in Lyon / Jay Newell, Iowa State University / iTVX Product Placement Measurement www.itvx.com
