    Default artwork from Conquering Video Games book (1982)

    Yesterday at the Portland Comic Book show I bought some original artwork from the book "The Complete Guide To Conquering Video Games" and "Videogaming Illustrated" magazine. I'm keeping the Astrocade and Intellivision pieces but some of the Atari 2600 and Odyssey 2 pieces may be for sale/trade. Here's some pics:

    Groovy stuff. Was the original artist selling it? Or the book's author?

    It was the artist not the author. He was co-publisher of Vidoegaming Illustrated with the author of the book.
