Conte and Tim Lapetino, The Art of Atari includes behind-the-scenesdetails on how dozens of games featured within were conceived of, illustrated,approved (or rejected), and brought to life!

Whether you're a fan,collector, enthusiast, or new to the world of Atari, this book offers the mostcomplete collection of Atari artwork ever produced! "For me, revisiting the beautiful artwork presented in this book is almostas good as taking a trip in Doc Brown's time machine back to that halcyon era atthe dawn of the digital age. But be warned, viewing these images may leave youwith an overwhelming desire to revisit the ancient pixelated battlefields theyeach depict as well." -- from the Foreword by Ernest Cline, author of READYPLAYER ONE Robert V. Conte wrote theAfterword

As described... A+++ on shipping and price... C (and that's being generous) on time. If you have forever and a month of Sundays to wait around then by all means do so. The price was great and the seller communicated wonderfully and the item was packed well so it wasn't damaged during transit all A pluses in my book just took a little bit longer than I anticipated.

  • Treasure Chest!

    A treasure trove of artwork, advertising, production information and more. I grew up with these games and always enjoyed some of the best artwork created for video games. There's also a lot of production information in this book and prototypes for consoles I've never seen before.
