Yes, you read that right!

I have a Tempest marquee that has a partial torn edge along the top. I want to put together a Major Havoc marquee, but I don't want to destroy my Tempest overlay because the art itself is in excellent condition, and the lower edge has only minor cracking. The marquee aside from the overlay itself is in perfect condition and is complete (i.e. the wood, glass, grill, and cardboard behind the grill). The tear on the top is low enough that you can definitely see it, but I'm sure something clever could be done with trimming and applying a strip of something to make it look nice.

So, I wanted to offer a trade. If someone has a Tempest marquee with the overlay in worse condition and they would like to upgrade to this one, all I ask is that you cover the shipping both ways, and that the one I am getting in return is in equal condition (aside from the overlay of course).

I'm not sure if this arrangement would be considered worth it or not, but I figured I'd offer and see if there is any interest. I'd also be interested in trading for a marquee with a Major Havoc overlay already applied. Of course for that we would work out a different arrangement. (i.e. I'd pay something)

One thing I wanted to note: there is no Atari copyright in the lower righthand corner of this marquee. I don't know what this means. As far as I can tell, it's identical to my other Tempest's marquee in every other way, so I'm pretty sure it's not a reproduction. Maybe Atari added the copyright on later revisions?
