With the help of 3D glasses manufacturer American Paper Optics, swimsuit models in the latest Sports Illustrated issue are busting out and jumping off the newsstands.
February 19, 2007 (Press Release) --
MEMPHIS, Tenn./February 19, 2007 --- Although not many companies easily recognize American Paper Optics, they do recognize its product, like the one incorporated into Sports Illustrated (SI) Magazine's wildly anticipated swimsuit edition which features a 15-page section of swimsuit models. American Paper Optics helped the publication deliver the Maui photo session in vivid eye-popping 3-D. SI chose to enhance the section with 6,500,000 paper 3-D glasses inserts - equivalent to 3 and a half (40-ft.) truckloads of paper eye glasses.
John Jerit, owner of American Paper Optics, was rewarded with the colossal Sports Illustrated order after years of pursuing the deal. American Paper Optics has cornered the 3-D marketplace by capturing multi-million piece orders from many high-profile customers including heavyweights such as Disney, Dreamworks, Warner Brothers, TV Guide, and VH-1 to name a few. With nearly one billion 3-D glasses produced since 1990, American Paper Optics manufactures paper 3-D eye glasses and specialty optics in a 13,000 sq. ft. manufacturing facility in Bartlett, Tenn.
In one of the most significant orders, American Paper Optics landed a 17-million piece 3-D glasses order with toy and game giant Mattel for worldwide in-pack distribution of a "Barbie" DVD in 3-D. National Geographic Kids magazine brought American Paper Optics on board to manufacture 1.5 million 3-D viewer inserts for its September 2005 edition slated for both U.S. and international publication. In 1998, Jerit worked with National Geographic to pioneer the 3-D promotions craze with 20 million 3-D bind-in viewers inserted into 10 million issues of the magazine featuring 3-D imagery from Mars Rover expeditions and the Titanic wreckage.
Additionally, music video channel VH-1 distributed 2 million 3-D glasses for viewing popular series "I Love the 80s." For another Hollywood venture, Jerit teamed up with NBC Television and TV Guide magazine to produce 7 million 3-D glasses. TV Guide distributed the glasses in its new larger format magazine to promote the 3-D broadcast of Medium starring Emmy winner Patricia Arquette. The special 3-D episode aired on NBC in 2005 and was later released in 3-D for DVD format in 2006.
To meet the SI tight manufacturing deadline, American Paper Optics ran production 16 hours a day over
a 40-day period.
Jerit's 3-D "vision" has changed the way millions of people view the world-one pair of 3-D glasses at a time. Since 1990, American Paper Optics has become the world's leading supplier of paper 3-D glasses. With entrepreneurial fervor, Jerit transformed a disposable, paper novelty business into a 3-D-eyeglass empire with revenues jumping from $125,000 in 1990 to sales in excess of 10 million dollars in 2005. Jerit and his staff have produced nearly 900 million paper eyeglasses-sold and distributed worldwide-for 3-D-oriented promotions, events and retail sale.
