In Search of the Golden Skull and Jerry Lawson
classicgamer74 replied to classicgamer74's topic in Prototypes
I'm just hoping someday it does get released to the general public. As an inner-city school teacher I find it sad that not only do several of my students not know about Jerry Lawson, but also he himself is not remembered overall is one of those talked about during Black History Month. I was happy to be able to share his story with my students and the students in my school. My video on my YouTube channel has also spread the word as well as that great documentary that was on Netflix. If it wasn't for him, gaming wouldn't be where it is today. I just hope with time he will truly get the recognition he deserves. -

In Search of the Golden Skull and Jerry Lawson

I've tried talking to various people and museums, with Tempest's help, but it seems that the only person who may have the rom is ultra busy and is unavailable. I hope that there are some other people out there that might have it and will be willing to share. -
As some of you know, I am a high school teacher. As this is Black History Month, and I do teach at an inner city school, I have been telling my students about Jerry Lawson. I found it sad that many of my students, and colleagues haven't heard of him and his many contributions to the video game world. In recent years, I am happy to say that Mr. Lawson is getting some credit and recognition. I hope that as time goes, this does continue. I have showed my students many of the games that he did create or have a part in, everything from the Fairchild Channel F to the 3D Ghost game. I hope that someday, the rom for In Search of the Golden Skull will be available so that what appears to be his best work, can be played. I know that with roms it is sometimes questions of legal and copyright issues. I just hope someday that the rom of this game can be made available to the general public. Maybe some day.

I need money for some bills I got behind on. I'm selling my rebuilt, 4 port5200. It has been modified to work on a modern AV input. See pictures. I'm throwing in all the games I have, too. I have three joysticks that I also worked on. They worked fine last time I checked. Everything in the pics is included. I'm asking $250 for everything. If possible I'm willing do a pick up/exchange. This thing is quite heavy, so I'm just offering. If you have any questions, please contact me. Thank you
