Hi-Res Donkey Kong "Bezel" Instruction Card
« on: May 03, 2007, 10:06:25 am »
I was wondering if anyone had a HI-RES (vector?) image of the Donkey Kong Instruction Card.  Not the one on the CP,  but rather the long, thin card that is stuck below the monitor bezel.   I have found a number of low-res shots of this card,  and plenty of hi-res images of the CP card,  but no hi-res version of the one I need.

Thanks!

Mike's Arcade sells the 3-piece set (including this piece) for $12.00.  Don't know if they sell just that piece cheaper or not.

Didn't you make this a Double DK?  You can get it for the Double DK for $14.00 if you want, also.

Don't know what the resolution is on the Arcade Art Library, but you can download it here:

The problem with ordering the card from Mikes or Arcade Shop isn't the $5.00 for the cards,  but the additional $5-$7 they want to ship the SINGLE friggin' card.  $10-$12 is a little on the steep side for a single bloomin' card...hence my reason for wanting to get a high-res version,  print it out on photo paper and stick it on. 

The image available at the Arcade Art website isn't nearly hi-res enough....it looks like the CPO instruction card was vectorized but not the bezel instruction card.

Cowbell:  I need the OTHER Instruction card...the one that goes under the bezel.

Actually, it was for download at Mike's site.  Here it is, cleaned up a bit.

EDIT:  Well, it's a little big to post here.  Check the MAME Artwork site after tonight's update; the updated Donkey Kong file will have the card in it.



RELAX and just have fun.

Thanks!

I just checked and it's still not there.  There is one piece of artwork (non-vector) thay shows both cards,  but the link to it is dead and the image that appears is way too low res.

Thanks again Mr. Do!  (BTW: Did you see my Mr. Do! clock?)

Nice clock.  I bought one of those on eBay awhile ago, but the print quality was "meh."  At least now I have the ability to print my own when I want to make a good one again =D

When you're saying the link is dead, are you talking about at MikesArcade?  All the downloads are here:
