In collaboration with author Robert David Swan, NWT is proud to present this gorgeous, hardcover edition of Insert Coin: A Visual Guide that comes complete with the NWT logo printed on the back cover.  This NWT exclusive is imported directly from the UK based printer.

Welcome to the first in a series of illustrated anthologies, each featuring fifty of the greatest coin-op titles to emerge during that nascent industry's most creative and innovative era, as seen across the UK from the late 1970s through to the mid-Eighties.
Originating either as imports from the USA and Japan, or released directly through British distributors, these visionary creations and their constituent parts - cabinets, controls, marquees and bezels - have been meticulously reconstructed as high-resolution digital artwork, and supplemented with a variety of machine-specific information, promotional material, and in-game screenshots.

As such, this and future compilations aim not only to celebrate those classic works of electronic entertainment that continue to inspire designers, artists and engineers through to the present day, but also endeavor to preserve their likenesses for collectors, restorers and enthusiasts for generations to come.
