No, it probably isn't looking at the label. There's also a name & date on
the right side. Can't make it out thought. Is it 11/11/04?

Doesn't Mark Shaker make a cart. PC board with a ZIF EPROM socket?
Maybe somebody
used that to make this cartridge.

I can't read it either, but look along the the bottom edge. You can
see where the Vectrex EPROM Cartridge label has been stuck on top of
an existing one. Not sure if that proves anything, but worth noting,
I think.

Yes, you're right. It's still a nice homebrew project though. Went for $53
so that's quite nice I guess for the seller.

I believe it's the guy over at sunmark, he sells repros of vectrex
controller labels, atari 800 carts, A2600 magicard etc.

Well, I received the cartridge the other day, and it's definitely a
home-brew... But will probably come in handy for me anyway since I
don't have a Vec-RAM yet... :)

The little writing on the side is hard to read in real life, but it
looks like it says

Schneider 11/11/04

And it's wired up to accept 27C256 EPROMs...
