This picture was taken from the february 1983 edition of Atari's Coin Connection =>

Of course we all know the flyer of Atari's Popeye cab but this is the first time I actually see real cabs in "the wild" (as far as you can call a show the wild....)
Browsing through all these Coin Connections (regretfully not all issues are there) you get a pretty nice insight about Atari's arcade division from 1976 to 1983. Something I noticed was that pictures, quotes and names of Atari's "suits" are EVERYWHERE and NOWHERE you will find one name of the people who created the games......
Anyway, this is a joy to browse through:
