M Network game catalog (Sears version)

[JayAre]

Just when you think you've seen every 2600 game catalog, along comes another one.  This one from M Network is similar to some of the company's other catalogs, except that this one mentions Sears on the front and back covers, and has a different catalog number.  And the unreleased Sea Battle for the 2600 (as it was named in all the other M Network catalogs) is called High Seas in this one (second-to-last pic below).

 

I assume the catalog wasn't included with any M Network games, since it mentioned Sears.  If it had been included with certain games, you would think there would be more of these out there, and this is the first time I've seen this catalog.  Nothing online either.

 

This must have been a hand-out at Sears stores, right?

 

Albert/Rom, if you're going to upload the images to your respective sites, can you copy and past from here, or should I send you the pics a different way?

Very unusual with the big Sears logo on back.  Very interesting.  I would assume later in the M Network life span because of the High Seas pic and mention of the Sears Arcade II.

Many thanks!

I'll add it asap.

You're very welcome, Rom.

 

In case you'll be putting it in chronological order with respect to the other M Network catalogs, it looks like this Sears version is the second-to-last one that the company produced, right before the white one, which appeared to be the last one.  I'm basing that on the catalog numbers, as it seems that the numbers increased with every subsequent catalog.

[Rom Hunter]

Yes, noticed that too.

Thanks, JayAre!
