I didn't see where the cabinet art was from....Hopefully its not the local inkjet knockoffs.  If they are Wayne's next gen then they will last no problems.



They look like Treasure Cove's who made them under sub license from BallyPinball (Wayne) at the time: (Allen at TreasureCove scanned a cabinet and then had them stitched together, corrected in Photoshop/Illustrator and screen printed):

The seller has another set available which shows the instruction text on the coin door decal the same as TreasureCove's above:

You can watch a vid of TreasureCove making the screen printed decals for AFM here:

There is another set (which has been currently unavailable for a couple years now) was made by PhoenixArcade under license from IPB, these sets were made using the original films from Bally/Williams. I have one of these sets on mine.



Price comparison to a HEP restored machine:
