OK, I had a centipede one from way back when, but today, in 2 different lots I found, I got a Galaxian with the fat lettered - Coleco style end label, with a normal front label.
And a Centipede with Coleco style end label, and Atari 2600 front label OVER a Coleco style front label.
Both are Atari 2600 games (not coleco games) Any input on these? Just get cheap and used whatever labels they had ahnging around at the time?

I'm having a hard time visualizing this. Can you scan them in and post 'em here? Sorry...

Fat lettered Centipede huh? Does it look anything like this one:

Note that is NOT what the Coleco version looks like. But it seems a bit odd. I saw that one in this auction (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3133911269).

Yes, that's the centipede end label, Galaxian has the same letter type.
You're right, it's not the colecovision end label I was thinking of, it DOES have a Coleco Centipede label on it the front though, with a standard silver atari front label stuck right over it (some edges showing)
Galaxian just has the weird end label
