Very, very rare Taito Electric Yo-Yo dedicated arcade. Works and sounds great. The CRT is clean and bright. There is some flux in the CRT picture that does not affect play, but could probably use a tune-up to make perfect. The cabinet is in very good shape.

This has been stored in a heated warehouse for almost 20 years, in a dry environment. Played very infrequently.

There is NO SHIPPING. This is pick-up only. There are number of movers and shippers who are able to tackle something like this and I will help facilitate to the point of working with them and getting it on the truck. They will need to pack, wrap, crate, pallet, and do what you require. I am not responsible for what happens to the game after it leaves my possession.​

Gawjis, really. By any chance would you be willing to take some hi-res pics of the marquee? It's needed badly and that one looks flawless!
 
I think you can appreciate me going overboard here. I'd imagine this is the last good marquee on the planet. I tried to scan this with my home Epson, but they put ridges around the edges which prevents anything larger than the bed from laying flat. I called a print shop about large-format scanning, and they said they could do it, but when I showed up, they refused to touch it due to the "copyright" on the image. Thankfully, my office had a Canon that had a flatbed that did a good job. I packaged a number of photos, including some with white paper for white balance and color accuracy and all the scans in this zip file here. I hope it does the job and preserves it for posterity!

Pete! That is really outstanding of you! Thank you. I don't even have a cab myself I just wanted to get this out there given recent threads. Outstanding pics!! Many thanks and good luck with the auctions. Your collection is a thing of beauty, I've enjoyed the pics and hope to play some of them in Utah at some point in the future.
