Description

Seven t-shirts for arcade games, pinball machines, and video game companies from the 1980s and 1990s, including Battlezone (extra large), Big Guns (medium), Hydro Thunder (extra large), Sente Technologies (large), Sinistar (large), and Stargate (large), the latter is sealed in its original bag. Also includes a green polo shirt for Sente Technologies (large). The majority of shirts feature iconic logos and imagery related to these beloved coin-operated titles from Atari, Midway, and Williams. Of particular interest and rarity is the Battlezone shirt, which was printed in a limited run with reflective silver ink and given out exclusively to Atari employees and special customers; Battlezone shirts given out at trade shows used standard ink. In overall fine condition, with some light stains and tiny holes.

From the collection of former Atari employee Wendi Allen, who worked for Atari coin-op engineering as both a hardware and software engineer, and as the principal electrical engineer who ushered Atari's vector graphics hardware to market.
