A Unique Tribute and Walk Down Memory Lane Print E-mail
Nick Greeley, Wednesday, 26 March 2008

Hand Drawn DirkBarry aka  Sonic 1992 over at DragonsLairFans.com has posted great tribute to his sister that also includes a walk down memory lane.

Who is Barry you might ask and why is this news?  Well, you might remember him from the very enviable gameroom that he managed to build outside his house known as Sonic 1992's Yesterdays

Anyhow, Barry posted a TON of old ads from our yesteryears including some vintage pac-man stuff as well as some great hand-drawn stuff that his sister put together as a kid.  Not to mention there are some great photos of him as he progressed through the 80s and early 90s with various arcade games and video games.

You see, Barry's sister passed away in 1995, but up until then, she was always clipping ads and saving memorabilia related to arcade games.  Brings back lots of memories.
