This PCB was found in an old arcade warehouse in Caorle, few kilometers from Trieste The pcb was probably bought in the eighties from ELMAC, which was one of the biggest arcade dealers in italy. Many rare pcbs found in italy (Rumba Lumber or Birdyi for example) came from ELMAC which, according to some source, had direct connection to japanese manufacturers.
My personal opinion is that the PB pcb is a bootleg, so it must exist also an original one.
