Hi all,

Here's a few more pics of some interesting stuff I found:

Here's a pic of the control panel overlay that was on it. Not original, but they did a pretty good job of color coordinating :-)

Here's a pic of the spinner from underneath. Very interesting, as there are no mounting holes through the CP like you see with most spinners like Tempest or Tac/Scan. The spinner is held into place I would guess similar to how POT controls (like Warlords) are:

The text on the bottom reads: "PANELCODER", "OPTICAL ENCODER", "DISC INSTRUMENTS, INC.", "COSTA MESA, CA"

This side reads "Vertical Shaft Encoder"

Ok, here's a CLOSEUP of the side art....

So the pattern suggests digital print and not screening, right?

And last but not least, a little more insight to how many Cosmic Chasm's were made...
