Hi Steve (and anyone else),

What I have are the original manuals TM-043 (Video Game Operators Handbook)
and TM-129 (The Book - A guide to electronic game operation and servicing).

Thanks Peter,

I did have a link to that. Infact it's a better scan than the link you had
so you may want it!

Still this is not the manual I am after.

 

I have sent John an email to see if I can buy the one he has.

 

Cheers

Steve

Here is a link to the manual you are looking for Steve. It's a very good
site for sheets etc.

The manual is one of the best theory explanations of arcade games that I
have come across.

A great follow-on from Atari The Book.

 

Regards

Peter

Hello group!

Just managed to snag myself am Atari rebound and after browsing Andrew
Welburns extensive bronze age archive I have decided this is a manual I need
to have.

 

So can anyone help me out? I have money or can trade for other later 78-84
manuals if that is more likely to secure it.

Hmmm, if it really is 'The Book' you're after there is an online copy here
