Quoted from DirtFlipper:Yep, pretty much.
Actually, from what I've been encountering, there seems to have been a fairly active group of ops/distributors in the late 70's who liked Gottliebs around here. I've found consecutive serial number Golden Arrows, and fairly tight serial number spreads among other titles too. And many of the same business stickers appear on the card trays.
So odds seem good of finding more '77-'78 era games. I'm OK with that (but out of room!).
I wonder if there were/are less collectors/resellers and therefore easier to pick them up? The northeast has such a large active group of pinheads, we are like vultures around here!
