Just got a cabinet just like this. It is Italian made by Elmac(?). I'm looking for the marquee. Anyone know where to find a decent fiöe to print or an originalm marquee for sale?

(Not my cabinet on picture. Picture is just for reference and is taken from internet.)

Thank you.

Thank you!

Dimensions are (in metric system):
Width: 795 mm
Height 170mm (visible area, not behind metal frame; 143 mm)

Btw. I like the euro version better :)
 
@nem you are a true gentleman. Thank you! Weird about the dimensions. Does your marquee have frames on its sides?

Or does the marquee simply doesn't cover the whole area?

I'll process this image and post a ready-to-print document.
 
This is a good thread w. lots of pictures of this euro big blue. Seems like the marquee stretches all the way to the sides.

Edit: first i thought that the qsound logo is grey. But when looking at my own picture further down this thread I can see that this one too looks grey (but in reality it's yellow/golden).

This is a first attempt. I have yet to print it out to see if the dimensions are ok. I have not tried to vectorize your scan, only altered the image so that it have the same proportions as in the thread I linked previously. The document is converted to CMYK and 300 DPI resolution.

I've also put together an alternative version that goes hand in hand w. the rest of our cabinet; white background and capcom logo. The vectorized capcom logo was found on the internet (there are multiple sources where it can be downloaded from).

Alternative: https://drive.google.com/file/d/16lyC61YvqkLIJSR_47yhGgEg24a-GF4F/view?usp=drive_link

I'll update with pictures when I have tried these marquees IRL.

Marquee from nem's scan. Printed on an A3 office paper and cut down. I didn't bother to print the other side since this is only to see that the placing and size is somewhat ok.

As you can see the "copyright 93 by Capcom" line under the qsound logo is hidden behind the frame. And so is the lowest part of V in "virtual". But looking at pictures this seems to be how the original is.

Next step is a printing service and print this on a real translite film.
