Quoted from Aurich:

I'm assuming most people have seen Brian Holderman's retheme of Mati Hari. Tell me there isn't a collector market for a game that looks like this? If someone said they were releasing Silver Bullet as a commercial game, with new rules and sounds, for $4k, I'd be in. Now I'd prefer a better layout than Mati Hari, 1978 is a little early, 1980 got better layouts, but just putting this up as an example.

Thank you for the shout-out Aurich! Just to set the record straight, Silver Bullet was the work of Brian Holderman and myself - we both worked on this re-theme as partners from conception to completion.

We originally conceived of Silver Bullet with the possibility of retail conversion kits in mind, but unfortunately that never got off the ground. Anybody looking to license Silver Bullet, or hire Brian Holderman for your low-cost original title, we would love to hear from you.

Seriously, Brian Holderman is a fantastic artist who has done some work for Stern as of late designing merch (t-shirts, hoodies, etc.). I believe he still has a handful of Silver Bullet backglasses for sale in his store - reverse screen printed on glass, just like mom used to make. Brian's website:
