Intellivision: Intelligent Television

Intellivision: Intelligent Television

Today I got a very nice catalog called 'Intellivision: Intelligent Television' from eBay.

It was printed in 1982 and has 40 colored pages; it includes a description of the Intellivision and the IntelliVoice, plus illustrated information about 37 games. The last page lets you join the Official Intellivision Game Club for $1.50, if you don't mind being way too late to the party.
Price of the catalog: $1.99 + $3.88 (shipping from U.S.A.).
Note: I like how in that kind of documents they keep talking about how 'realistic' the graphics look ^_^
