Some notes from Archer:

"The attachment details some pics of my Missile command restoration, sorry, rebuild! Notice things like the lettering on the coin shoot red light covers... this cab was done for a MC world record scorer whos now in his 40's. The artwork is my reproduction using 0.4mm thick scuff proof polymer coated semi stiff synthetic paper and is printed on a 3,000 dpi printer using fade proof UV inks. This art is sooo much easier to apply than ultra thin vinyl silkscreen stuff that just shows up every spec beneath and usually gets ridden with air bubbles or wrinkles if you're not careful. My art just rolls out dead smooth hiding wood imperfections, and looks good each time every time. I've also shrunk/adapted this to suit mini cabaret and have produced this, along with a more colourful mini CPO like its big brother. I just need to find a day spare to do it. I've done similar preparatory artwork for battlezone mini, asteroids mini, and tempest."
