List of arcade artwork reproductions – Finished, Out of Stock / In Stock
I saw Jeff Phillips post about arcade websites with reproduction control panel overlays, and I thought to myself, you know what would make an awesome post? How about a list of all reproduction arcade artwork that was ever produced? It could be a master list to record what piece of artwork was printed, screen vs. inkjet, how many, who printed them, etc. etc. Please help me fill it out. (more…)
NOS arcade game control panel overlays, sideart & marquees
Another update from Anthony at QuarterArcade.com on the arcade game warehouse discovery in PA. We know he got a large quantity of NOS (New Old Stock – Unused old arcade artwork) in the warehouse buy and today we have a more comprehensive list with some photos. The tip of the iceberg, take a look at this photo below showing the rolls of new sideart, I can see Tempest (4th Lft), Eagle, Black Widow (5th rt) and Mylstar (4th rt).

NOS Sega Pengo sideart arrives
I didn’t think that the artwork would arrive so soon, but the Pengo sideart arrived on my doorstep this afternoon. Hans came across these two pieces of NOS right side Pengo artwork in Chicago and posted about them on Klov a couple days back. I was lucky enough to get a hold of them. (Warning 😉 token canned food NOS arcade artwork photo ahead)

From what he says, of the 3-4 that he has had, this is the nicest looking Jr. Pac-man he’s seen. (more…)
New Donkey Kong 2 Webpage Design
Soon after I posted about developing some arcade blog wordpress themes, Rich at This Old Game had expressed some interest in having me do a design for his Donkey Kong 2 artwork package page. Today, I quickly designed and coded that page from scratch and it is now online at Thisoldgame.com
Sega Pengo Pushing Marquee Vectors Complete
This is actually old, old news. Just before Christmas of last year I had finished scanning both versions of the Pengo marquee and posted them on Rotheblog. Around that time I had met and teamed up with another collector interested in seeing this artwork reproduced. I sent him the marquee scan and in about two weeks he sent me a completed vector file in Illustrator!
Atari Football XO Artwork Update
I spent my weekend scanning and vectorizing the Atari Football artwork, among other things. Here are some images of the composite Football player scan and a screen showing the artwork traced to date.
