Platform: Atari 2600
Genre: Action/Adventure  

Based on the research I have conducted, this is only the 14th known copy of Air Raid by Menavision. I bought this game new in Texas around 83 or 84. It has been boxed up and following me around the country for decades. I recently decided to get out the old Atari 2600 and hook it up in the garage. As I was going through the games I rediscovered this one.  Since it has no name on the cartridge, I did a web search and learned that it is the holy grail of 2600 video games.

Atari Age rates the rarity of this game 10 of 10 "Unbelievably Rare".

Here is a link to an article regarding last copy to sell on eBay: http://www.cnn.com/2010/LIVING/wayoflife/04/13/game.sells.for.thousands/index.html

Needless to say, I have decided to let the game go to a collector rather than play it in the garage.

I do not have the box or instructions for this game.  The cartridge is in excellent shape with no cracks; however there is some yellowing around the seams from age.  The label is also in excellent shape with no rips.

The auction will go to the highest bidder.  I do not have a buy it now, so please do not ask for a “cash price”.  I am happy to answer any questions and will try to respond quickly.
