Call for "Autographed" Carts

Recommended Posts

I want to get together some scans of "autographed" carts, you know, the ones where some kid scrawled his name in Magic Marker across the label? I want to put them together as a page on my site. I think it would be amusing to see a collection of these defaced games.

I wonder if more than one collector has a Carol Cox or a Michael Reeder. :D

If you're interested, post scans here, or email them to me.

 

Thanks.

I would say yes...you just KNOW that they are out there.

Actually, I'm just as guilty when it comes to record albums.

I had a HUGE collection by the time I was 12...with my

name scrawled in magic marker across the fronts. :sad:

 

Sad, really.

Oooh, I hate it when carts have that.

 

I only did that like twice with SNES carts, and those weren't on the label (Goo-Gone could probably take it off).

 

I had a Donkey Kong (I think it was) from "Sean", but I've since opened it to play with the PCB.

When the NES came around, trading was just about the whole reason to have an NES... So all of my NES carts have my name, or a friends name on them... So we'd never "forget" who's carts they were :-)

 

Unfortunetly I was young when Atari was king, so I only traded with my best bud, so no names were required... We both knew which ones were ours. But that is probably exactly why you find these carts in the wild.

Then the worst is my Track N Field signed by someone who went by the name of "Seaman". I have gotten what I could of that sharpie off..but not all...you can see it below...

I have several other carts that are signed by the actual creators such as the homebrews above. But I haven't scanned them in yet. Once I do...I will provide those as well...if interested...

I have a bunch of these, including one I autographed myself back in the day :ponder:

Do you want just 2600 stuff or the whole gauntlet ofgaming platforms?

What the hell, let's see everything. I have some 'signed' NES carts now that I think of it... :)

It might take me a while to go through everything, and I'm at work now anyways so I can't get them to you tonight. But among others I know I have Super Breakout, Mr. Do, and Karate all with writing on them, and I know there's more, I just have to find them. Most of the SNES/Genny carts I have have "P" written on them by Electronics Boutique to indicate 'preowned,' but I imagine you don't want all those...

 

I'll see what I can dig up.

I have quite a few from "Brubaker", who alternatively used his first name as well or sometimes just a "B". I also have one with Jerry Halford's return-address label on the back.

 

I'll get scans up, but it will be quite a while.

It really freaked me out when I saw that Sequest signed by "Warner" until I realized why it seemed so familiar, that's one I traded to you! :D

I'm pretty sure the Bowling cart is from me too. I love getting rid of my somewhat bad condition carts and getting better ones, I now have a Bowling with great label and a Seaquest with no writing, instead of that crap I traded to you :D But, at least they work.

Someday you will regret giving up a genuine 'Warner' Sequest! :lol:

I have a Star Raiders cart with LAHR written across it in huge letters. If I can ever get my scanner to work again, I'll post it up here. Other than that, my carts are pretty autograph free.

hehe...a few 7800 games with some autographs on them...

 

I actually know who defiled these carts way back when...but I will plead the 5th on the grounds that I could incriminate myself...hehe...

 

Pole Position II signed by "Totally Rad"

Then my Rampage cart signed by a Red Triangle and a nifty Lightning Bolt...

Okay..that's all for now...I was looking in my other carts..such as Coleco...and NES...SNES...and found nothing else for now. I know I have a few autographs on some Genesis carts...but I have too many of those to look through them all right now..

 

enjoy...
