Where is this from ?

I was looking through an old shoe box in my garage and found it full of Cassettes, mostly games and some with code

I wrote for several projects (before I could afford a disk drive), none will load using an XC12 on my 800, probably may be

some difference between the XC12 and the old 410 that I saved them with (it's the really old one that's powered from a

seperate jack on the 800 power supply). I am using an SIO splitter with a 5V power supply as I know the 800 can't 

supply enough current to run the XC12

 

I will probably convert them all to .cas files at some stage, however I found this cassette amongst them, anyone know

where it's from, I'm assuming it was off a magazine, but not really sure.

tapes are clearly from 1984. i'm pretty sure they were the "very brief existence" of the Card/Tape-Based Magazine
