Colecovision White label?

Recommended Posts

Hi all: I received a large CV lot today, and one of the items is a Lady Bug with a plain white label. Is this common? Maybe Canadian or European version? I'm just curious, as I've never seen one like this. But I am pretty new to collecting for CV.

 

Thanks.

These were unused/overstock cartridges that were manufactured by CBS Electronics and placed in CBS' very recognizable cartridge shell, but without a label. These cartridges were eventually sold off to TeleGames U.K. and from there the generic white label with black text was produced/applied to the cart shell, copies of typed-up instuctions made and they were packaged in what is referred to a Sliver Packs and sold off. I have included a picture of a Sliver Pack for Time Pilot and there were many other games that were given this treatment.

I ordered a few Colecovision games from Telegames USA years ago and found out the Alacazar game, which had a generic white label also, didn't work properly on a Personal Arcade system-it would glitch up. I don't know if one would work on the ColecoVision ever since I sent it back for another game.
