Sounds like someone just had a thing for labeling his possessions.... Kind of like writing your name in your underwear ;-)

This is a weird question but I came across an early King's Quest I (the IBM PCJr one) which look as if it has never been used before. On the front of the manual, neatly centred, is a white mailing label type sticker, with 'KINGS QUEST' typed on one line, and below this, "CHARLES C CARROLL'. I hardly see a point in labelling the manual 'kings quest' when this is already written plainly on the manual itself... I suppose the previous owner might just have liked labelling his stuff.. but it seems unlikely. Anyone got any clue what this could be from? Some kind of demo copy maybe? Does the name mean anything to you Sierra buffs? I googled the name but it is surprisingly common, and didnt find anything to do with Sierra or gaming - though he DID sign the US Constitution or something ;>) -- ---------------------------------------------- Howard Feldman, Author of The Search for Freedom A Computer Fantasy Role-Playing Game Visit its Homepage at http://home.golden.net/~feldman/SearchForFreedom/ Visit the Computer and Book RPG Museum at http://vgmuseum.chaoticmonkey.com/ Samuel Lunenfeld Research Institute ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent to you because you are currently subscribed to the swcollect mailing list.
