Perusing the pages of Art of Atari, a fantastic retrospective book collecting Atari artwork from cartridges, packaging and other marketing material, I noted several marks that appeared in art produced for their science fiction games. Video game art, even in its early days, definitely seems like a source I should investigate further.
