ianoid Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 I picked this up recently. Is this an unusual variant? Assembler Editor without additional text. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+MrFish Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 almost looks like a label printing problem... Or maybe rather an incomplete printing, since there are different colors, they may be printed in phases, and this was the first -- or in this case the only -- phase.

Bryan Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Looks like a nice die-cut label. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rybags Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 I'd second printing error - although most of that style cart have brown/tan labels and a sort of vertical texture, but that might also be part of a (missed) printing phase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bandit Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 There are a lot of those I have seen, I have one with same label. If he opens it I bet it has the 2 atari roms inside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never seen one like this. Can you post a picture of your carts like this? I don't expect it to be an EPROM or prototype or anything, I just thought it was really weird.

Defender II Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 It is a label printing error/partial run, I have one like it as well as some other label errors/partial print runs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+David_P Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 I think that was just B&C assembling carts from parts they bought, and making their own labels. Also, note that the thread was last active six years ago... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_The Doctor__ Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 a number of Atari authorized retailers, service centers, and parts houses were permitted to assemble label and sell product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
