Atari collection room update!

Recommended Posts

I just had to show this. After years of looking I finally got an Atari promo baseball bat and wanted to display it in my Atari collection room and found this display case that I could mount from the ceiling. (Its about the only place left I have room to put stuff) any way just wanted to show it and ask anyone else who has wierd Atari displays to post your pictures here.

 

:D :love: :grin:

That is one huge Centipede box in the background... what is that? A promotional display, or something someone made recently? I've never seen anything like that.

Damn you got good eyes! That is a real Atari 2600 Centipede store display box and I know they also had one for Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Yes, I have had many requests for pictures. The problem I have right now is that all of my stuff is boxed because of impending construction (the damn city is giving me all types of hell on the plans because of various insignificant issues). After everything is said and done, my gameroom will be between 1,000 to 1,500 square feet (depending on what the city allows me to do) .... I plan to have a huge party for all the AtariAge locals that want to come.

 

Again dude, you got an awesome room.....you should be very proud!!! :) :) :) :)

I was hoping you weren't going to say it's an official item, because now I really want one! Very very cool though. Nice stuff.

Raiders too?

 

It's a pity I don't have a picture of that one.

 

BTW: I'm still looking for a sharper picture of that Centipede promo box with a more subtle item than a sneaker to show the size of the box (an original Centipede box would be great):

Great baseball bat case, ATARIPITBULL.

 

It really looks like it was made for it.

There are pictures in this ebay auction Rom,

He's had a ton of promo items up over the past month or two. He had a Centipede box auction 120199868284 (it's pictured the same was as Raiders) I agree though a side by side with the original would be great!

I'd like to get some more Atari (and other classic era) promotional items, but the prices for these things have been astronomical lately...still, this seller has been offering a lot of very nice items.
