About the Ads

Lamination

Lamination for any ad is available for $1.50 per page. If you are not going to file the ad in a binder in a sheet protector, then this is the way to go. Makes the ad look very attractive, while making it much more robust to handle. You can leave them on or near your game for people to pick up and read. Note that all non-laminated ads are shipped in sheet protectors at no extra charge.

Please Be Patient

If you order these ads it may take me a day or two to complete the work on them. Please be patient, as you are buying my time for about $2 an hour to make these ads look nice! If you wish an ad for a game or machine not listed please just ask - I can usually respond within a day or less. Note: I do not sell or provide raw photocopies or high resolution scans of ads.

Ad Sizes

The original ads came in all shapes and sizes. Many were taken from oversized magazines and were full page, half page or quarter page and after scanning and editing fill up most of an 8.5 by 11 page. Other ads were smaller than that and did not contain game pictures or sketches. These are priced accordingly less. Ask if you have any questions!

Other images come directly from manfacturers brochures and are generally full page sized. Some are full color, while others contain one spot color such as red.
