Hi all,

I picked up a Centipede the other day (literally, those things are HEAVY). I was looking at sideart online and found out there are two different versions of repro sideart for the upright US version, with the main difference being the outline around the centipede:

I always find these quirky cabinet differences interesting, so I thought I'd see if we could track serial numbers to see how they relate to the outline.

Model No: #302XX
Serial No: 4424
Color: Pink

Artwork looks to be original from what I can tell. :)
 
I've had two and both had the pink outline. One is gone, the other I still have but I can't get to the serial easily. :( Where are all the locations for the serial? I don't have the front serial tag any more, is it also on the back and the inside somewhere?
