Title: Another Atari 2600 woodgrain.

bought this one from a member of my bulletin board, he came down yesterday for a board meet-up.


Atari 2600 woodgrain,
2 controllers

Frogger
Q Bert
Galaxian
Pitfall
Star Raiders
Combat
Space Invaders
Robot Tank
Backgammon
Decathlon
Enduro Superbreakout
Tennis
Raiders of the Lost Ark
Berzerk
Casino
River Raid
Phoenix
Pac Man
Yar's Revenge.


most of the games come in strange boxes, they are plastic, with that mock distressed leather look that replacement VHS cases used to have, designed to look a little like books. On the spin, the mock book look is continued, and the word "VIDEO GAMES" is printed. Each case houses 2 games snugly, and there is a leaflet inside each box with a grid printed on to enable players to record with a pen their highest scores, and to write the title of the game on top too.

Those are some pretty cool games, but how much did you pay for it?

Fascinating.  Are you gonna put these in your fancy schmancy office with thirty foot tall bookshelves and brass ladders on wheels?

wow, those are cool. now you can keep your Atari games in the library right alongside Moby Dick, War & Peace and Olsen's Standard Book of British Birds.
