Description An account of the resource To be determined: Did you get the manual with the E.T. Book Cart? If not, I am sure Albert Yarusso still has the PDF file and can print you off a high res manual. I think if your organization bought the E.T. Book Cart right when it was released and you did not return it to Atari Age, you have a first printing of the cart. This means it has the Zero Page Load Error which means that on 4 switch Atari 2600s it works fine. BUT on the 6 switch Atari 2600s, the screen will roll. Michael Rideout can explain it better. Otherwise you have the second printing.

Book Cart. E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial for the Atari 2600—the game that some say brought down an industry—is looked at through various means, and is immortalized even further by a cartridge book focused on the game that helped bring about the video game crash. Use your joystick to choose from the chapters you wish to read or the game you wish to play. Go from page to page with ease as you learn more and more about what the world of E.T. is all about.
