His original sketches for Pac-Man! Click for detail them.
The photos were taken by Sandra Pompe of the EVD. In the next edition of Control has a few surprising revelations about the man behind Pac-Man.

Made me think. Did any of Ms Pacman later levels have Dead ends?

I'm Bumping this thread because today is Pac-Man's 35th birthday.
Happy Birthday, you jaundiced pill-gobbler. Keep on out-running those ghosts.
