Well, it can't determined conclusivly that there was never a proto. What
I am looking for is some expert analysis as to whether these screen
shots could possibly have been generated by a 2600 or not. The concensus
at this point is that they are re-touched Earthworld shots, and could
not have possible been generated by a real 2600.

If I recall my Swordquest history correctly, I don't
think a prototype was ever made for Airworld. If it
was, surely it would have been sent up for public
domain and not up for auction.
I'd say this is a phony.
