OVGE 2006 stash

And now…the stash.

Finding a vendor on the floor who was selling copies of Electronic Games Magazine for less than ten bucks was a joy to behold – I got January through August of 1983, and December of 1984. (The only issue I had before today was July ’82.) I’m aiming for nothing less than a complete collection of EG.
Big thanks to Steve W for the mini-disco light – it was smaller than I thought, but y’know, that means my wife will kill me about 30% less than if I had brought a huge, hi-fi-speaker-sized disco light (which Kent also called a “color organ”) home with me. 😆 Steve also gave me a stash of VIC-20 games so I can get started on archiving that machine!
Brian brought me the Apple joystick there – many thanks. Of course the book is from Rob’s table and I gladly plunked down the cover price and promptly started looking for my name in there. 😛
Linda’s Action Figures sold me the 2600 Raiders cart and manual. Believe it or not, I’ve never touched this game before. That’s also where I got the 2600 manual, just ’cause.
A huge thanks to both Steve and to Mr. and Mrs. MegaManFan for the six-pack of Dr. Pepper straight from the plant in Dublin, TX – where they still use real live sugar! Kent and I were wide awake for the trip home, that’s for sure. 😀
As always, a big thanks to Kent for coming with me yet again, and to Jesse Hardesty and his crew for putting on the show where all this fine madness took place.
