Ever found a monitor with burn-in from a RARE game?

You look at the monitor, see the burn, and go "aw man, wish I'd owned the game that went with this thing". (Or look at a monitor inside a game and go, "man, I wish this thing hadn't been converted!")
 
A Pac-Land with Professor Pac-Man burn on the monitor. I once owned a Touchdown Fever with Q*bert Quebes burn. It also had the lower overlay from Q*bert Quebes still on it.
 
I had a World Series: The Season with Reactor burn-in. I got it early on in my collecting days, and couldn't figure out how it got that burn-in, since it looked almost like a baseball diamond, but didn't line up with the game at all.

Then I realized that it was from Reactor, and it made complete sense, because the guy I bought it from also had a cabinet that he was converting "back" to Missile Command... except when I saw it, I didn't think it looked quite like Missile Command... it was actually a Reactor cabinet. So he probably swapped the monitors so his "Missile Command" could have less burn-in. Oh well.

I had a Cinematronics Space Wars with Warrior burn-in on the monitor.
 
My Jr. Pac-Man has I think Galaga 3 burn. While I wish I had one, not for my Jr. Pac!
 
I used to have a monitor with Reactor burn also.

Come across a huge number of monitors with Make Trax burn in them, which is fairly impressive for a game I am not sure I have ever seen in real life.

I've seen Make Trax burn-in, too. Pretty easy to spot the kitty cat!
 
Years ago, I purchased a working 13" monitor for my cabaret Ms. Pac-Man that had mild burn in from Gottlieb's "Caveman", their pinball/video game hybrid.

Kyle :cool:
 
None of my games have monitor burn-in, well except for the Projection TV in my Propcycle. Besides that I have 19 cabinets and no burn.
