| Special thanks to Craig Pell for allowing me to add my label variations |
| to his awesome list of 2600 carts. He has added quite a few carts |
| to his list since version 6.5 (which is what this list is based on). |

| If you know of any label variations that aren't listed here please |
| send email to John! It will take the cooperation of a lot of people |
| to make a complete listing of all label types. |
| |
| KEY: |
| Rarity: C = common |
| (by Craig) U = uncommon |
| R = rare |
| ER = extremely rare |
| NR = never released; i.e. very, very rare! |
| |
| Gr (graphics rating): 1 = poor graphics |
| (by Craig) 2 = reasonable graphics |
| 3 = decent graphics |
| 4 = good graphics |
| 5 = excellent graphics |
| |
| Pl (playability): 1 = tedious |
| (by Craig) 2 = dry; brief enjoyment |
| 3 = worth playing |
| 4 = fun |
| 5 = irresistible |
| |
| Abreviations used in this listing: |
| M: = main label (which is the large one on the top of the |
| cart, or the only one if there is just one label.) |
| E: = end label (the small one on the opposite side of |
| circuit board.) |
| C: = the actual plastic cartridge |
| T: = typo |
| (c) = copyright |
| |
| I keep track of my carts like this: |
|Donkey Kong 2451 C 2 3 |
| A 10 C: "made in Hong Kong (AE)", E: no TM, 3 line "use with" |
| | | |
| | \This indicates that I have OWNED 10 Donkey Kong carts of this type |
| | (I could have seen quite a few more, this is what I've owned.) |
| \This is the condition of the one I have in my collection |
| A = good shape ... F = bad shape |
| B1 = opened box in good shape ... B3 = opened box in bad shape |
| S1 = sealed box in good shape ... S3 = sealed box in bad shape |
| |
| "this is the end of the list" is on the last line of this list. |

+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Types of labels: |
| |
| Type Adopted Discription |
| ------- ------- -------------------------------------------------- |
| Text1 1977 Text with large letters and logo. End label has |
| the last two digits of the game number |
| printed on the left hand side. |
| |
| Text2 1978 Text with small letters and logo. The number has |
| been removed from the side label and "use with |
| XXX controllers" was added. Early versions |
| have large (R)'s and later versions have |
| smaller ones. In 1979 copyright dates were |
| added. |
| |
| Text3 1980 A new font is used. Look for a slanted looking |
| "e" in "game program." |
| |
| Black 1981 Pictures appeared on the main label and a new font |
| was used for the game names. The background |
| has a darker black look to it than it did in |
| previous labels. Game names were originally |
| in lowercase letters, then changed to capital |
| letters after only a few weeks. |
| |
| Silver1 1982 Background changed to silver. "Atari 2600" |
| printed on top of the picture in large print. |
| NOTE: starting in 1985 some games were re- |
| released with this same label format except |
| the background was grey instead of silver. |
| |
| Silver2 1983-8 Picture size is increased. "Atari 2600" moved to |
| the upper right corner and shrunk in size. |
| later versions have the name of the game in |
| the game's original font instead of the basic |
| Atari font. |
| NOTE: starting in 1985 some games were re- |
| released with this same label format except |
| the background was grey instead of silver. |
| |
| Red1 1986-91 Background color changed to red. Pictures changed |
| to black and white. "Atari 2600 VCS" was added|
| on the end labels. There are slight variations|
| in the background color and the size of some |
| lettering depending on where the cartridge was |
| made. |
| |
| Red2 198?-91 Pictures changed to color. "Atari 2600 VCS" on the|
| end label was changed to "Atari 2600." There |
| are slight variations in the background color |
| and the size of some lettering depending on |
| where the cartridge was made. |
| |
| 1986-8 Atari Corp. rerelease some games in their original |
| label style with a later copyright date by |
| Atari Corp. Some have plastic end labels, |
| some have glossy paper labels, and some have |
| regular paper labels. |
| |
| Special Labels: |
| CCW Children's Computer Workshop. Yellow Labels. |
| Disney Blue labels. |
| Muppets Purple labels. |
| Peanuts Red labels. |
| type1/type2 a combination of label types. |
| PRO prototype. |
| type-P PAL format. |
| |
| |
| Plastic and Glossy labels: |
| |
| Glossy labels |
| ------------- |
| Atari Inc. sometimes coated their Black type labels with a thin |
| layer of wax (although its not very common.) Colors look a |
| bit darker in the picture for waxed labels than in unwaxed |
| labels. Waxed labels feel a little different to the touch and |
| they have a slightly glossy appearance. |
| |
| Plastic labels |
| -------------- |
| Atari Corp. sometimes put a plastic coating on their end |
| labels. These were made poorly and tend to have a bumpy look |
| to them. Light reflects well off them compared to the regular |
| paper labels. Edges of the letters look kind of fuzzy. |
| |
| Types of cartridges: |
| |
| Type Discription |
| ----- ----------------------------------------------------------- |
| C1 locking circuit board protector. |
| C2 free sliding circuit board protector. |
| C3 no circuit board protector. |
| |
| Numbers stamped on the end label: |
| |
| Atari Inc. sometimes stamped a number in the upper left corner of |
| the end label. This number indicates the week that the cart was |
| manufactured. There are three digits in the number; the last |
| number indicates what year the cart was manufactured and the first|
| two numbers indicate what week of that year the cart was made. |
| EXAMPLE: a cart has "453" stamped on it. So this cart was made |
| in the 45th week of 1983. |
| ^^ ^ |
| Sometimes there is an "E" before the number and sometimes there |
| is an "R" after the number. I don't know what those letters |
| indicate (e-mail me if you do!) |
| Note that Atari made the carts for Sears, so some Sears carts may |
| have the numbers stamped on the end labels. |
| |
| Note: Tony Rice discovered a very subtle variation in the Black |
| style label. Look at the 6 in CX-26xx. Some labels have a 6 |
| that has a tiny dot in the center of the circle part of the six |
| where the picture shows through. Others have a "filled 6" that |
| has a solid black dot that makes up the center of the circle part |
| of the six. Check out Yar's Revenge--I have 4 of them with a |
| filled 6 and 13 with a hollow 6. |
