In a thread about recent media coverage of Buzz-A-Rama, Nick Cerulli posted a pic of the Emperor track that used to be set up there (and which is said to be stored in Buzz's legendary basement).
It occurred to me how few pics of this track have ever surfaced, at least how few I have seen. The AMRC promotional material only contained this artist's image, which is known to be inaccurate insofar as showing what the real track actually looks like.
Since, as far as I know, the Emperor at Buzz-A-Rama was the only one ever built/sold (any know differently?), all of the existing photographs of an Emperor show the one that was there. And I believe all of the few photos of that track I've been able to locate have come from Buzz.
Peter Lentros posted the next three photos in a thread last year on Purple Mile tracks.
One of the famous 'Buzzy's Bunnies' marshaling. These two obviously were taken a few moments apart, since the same people are present.
Pretty certain that is Buzz's hand. On my one visit there a few years back. I noticed that he has what I consider to be distinctive-looking hands.
And this is the pic that Nick posted earlier today.
Phil Hackett mentioned he had some pics of Buzz's Emperor somewhere, but he's either never found them or hasn't posted them. Anyone else have any pics of an Emperor?
I did quite a bit of Googling looking for more pics and they just aren't there. Most of the pic links I did locate wound their way back to Slotblog as the primary source.
