The beautifully engraved certificate (with no pen marks) from the famous
Atari Corporation was issued in 1987-1992. This historic document was
printed by the U.S. Banknote Corporation and has an ornate block border with
a vignette of the famous company logo. This certificate has the printed
signature of the company's president, Jack Tramiel. These certificates are
highly desirable and are rare with no pen marks.
Atari was establilshed in 1972 by Nolan Bushnell, an engineer who produced
his first video arcade game while tinkering with microcomputers at home. The
game, Computer Space, developed in 1971, was a commercial flop, but
Bushnell's second arcade game, Pong, became an overwhelming success.
In 1976, Bushnell sold Atari to Warner Communications for $28 million, of
which Bushnell received $15 million. Bushnell left Atari two years later and
went on to start Chuck E. Cheese pizza parlors, among other things.
In 1993, Atari Games became Time-Warner Interactive. In 1998, Atari
Corporation software and hardware rights were sold to Hasbro, Inc., for only
$5 million.
