Control Panel Overlays
I receive a lot of visits to this blog from searchers looking for a specific control panel overlay. As a service to those who stumble across this site hoping to find a control panel overlay for their game, I’m going to list the major sites that specialize in reproduction control panel overlays and list the overlays that they have. Note that some of these sites also sell the side art for the same games. Unless listed, assume all are for the upright version of a game. Click on the “Read More” link for the list:

This is by no means a comprehensive list of every site that sells silk screened reproduction artwork, but a list of vendors that I have personally seen artwork from and can vouch for the quality. If the control panel overlay you are looking for is not in this list, head over to Mame Marquees, where you’ll find a huge selection of ink jet reproduction control panel overlays. If you own a rare, or undesirable game, you may have no choice but to opt for an ink jet reproduction. Silk screened artwork is expensive to produce and unless a certain number of pieces can be sold, it’s not worth the time, effort or money. If you’re interested in creating reproduction artwork that’s not available check out Jeff Rothe’s great post with plenty of tips and information.

[...] saw Jeff Phillips post about arcade websites with reproduction control panel overlays, and I thought to myself, you know what would make an awesome post? How about a list of all [...]
I was very inspired by your post about where to buy reproduction arcade control panels overlays online. I have ran into a problem a couple of times where I have asked myself, has a reproduction ever been done? Being a more recent collector, I wasn’t around for what I would call the reproduction boon.
So, based on your idea, I am going one step further and starting my own list that I hope other arcade game collectors will add to, the “List of out of stock reproduction arcade artwork“. Sideart, Marquees, Kickplates Bezels and Cpanels, you name it, I want to record it so people can reference back.
@Jeff Rothe: Good luck with your list. That’s quite an ambitious project. It should be a great resource for other collector’s.
