Early 1980s Atari/Imagic game art for Atlantis

[Joseph C. Brown]

Early 1980s Atari/Imagic game art for Atlantis - I'm looking for any decent resolution art / images, mainly of the attacking spacecraft.

1982 (?) Imagic Atlantis cartridge Enterprise documentary 'All In The Game', intro’d by Eric Sevareid

At 12:50 into the video, during the play-testing, there is a brief glimpse of a table beyond the kids that looks to have the model diorama, all primer-ed up, which was used for the cover art.

The best image I’ve found on the web shows that attacking Gorgon ships are mainly Vulcan Warp Shuttle over an Aurora Orion clipper, plus mixed other bits. The Atlantis buildings are a mix of Revell Shuttle SRBs, the Shuttle external fuel tank, a Klingon warp nacelle, possible Saturn V sections, Millennium Falcon parts, and a Monogram Draconian Fighter as the center spire.

While ID’ing everything would be cool, I’m mainly interested in the attacking Gorgon ships. Does anyone have any input, or, just better source images? Any help would be appreciated!

(minor note: I've not given up on the Space Academy build, I'm just doing some additional model research!)

I looked in my copy of “The Art of Atari” by Tim Lapetino, and did not see reference to this game. The author acknowledged a few sources for images, including Rochester New York’s Strong Museum of Play. Perhaps you could contact them to see if they may have this game art in their collection. Having visited that museum, I can say they have an impressive collection of old video games and ephemera.

I do appreciate the search effort!
