lable variations

[0078265317]

While looking to complete some of the collection I noticed different labels.  I was not aware 5200 had variations of its already small library.  Is one less common.

Never noticed that before either. With a quick image search, it does appear to be somewhat common of a variation.

There is "RealSports Football" vs "Football" too.  I have found neither variation to be more common, although the realsports variant appears to be later by the copyright date.

Super Breakout also has 2 different boxes. The early pack-in games use a smaller font and the "Super Breakout" is all on one line. The "Atari 5200" is also much larger. The blue color of the bar was also more violet. The later boxes used a larger font and stacked Super Breakout on 2 lines.

Game is exactly the same.  Overlays are the same.  Box, manual and cart label differ

Zone Ranger has 2 different labels.
And Atari Corp labels are usually in better shape than Atari Inc ones.
