Longtime THIRTEEN viewers may remember the legendary Syms “buttons” promo that aired during Cinema Thirteen and, more recently, Reel 13. It featured lively Bobby McFerrin music—and buttons from the vast personal collection of the late Sy Syms, founder of Syms. Sy’s daughter Marcy (pictured), CEO of Syms, has continued the legacy of supporting classic films on THIRTEEN—a legacy that spans 30 years. “We’re extremely proud of Syms’s association with THIRTEEN,” she said. “An educated consumer is Syms’s best customer, and the same thing can be said about Funder Spotlight: THIRTEEN’s dedicated viewers.” Syms To join Syms as an underwriter of Reel 13, contact Katherine Schultheis at 212.560.6630.
