Summary
A ‘SONY PlayStation’ game called ‘EA Sports F1 2000’ in original box with instructions. The box is made of transparent plastic in a square, with a narrow black strip of plastic down the left side, imprinted with 'PlayStation' going from bottom to top vertically. There is a hologram sticker on the bottom left of the plastic case. Once opened the case contains a paper printed insert held in place by small plastic securers to create the cover. It has the PlayStation logo in the top left corner, two racing cars and a large title in two circles. In a black banner across the base is 'PlayStation'. Down both right and left sides in the plastic are paper inserts that say 'F1 2000' in white on black backgrounds with the PlayStation logo at the top end and 'SELES 02722' at the other. Back inside the box is a paper information booklet printed in black and white text inside but with colour covers. There are also three further leaflets one about ‘F1 Racing Magazine' subscriptions, another on 'EA Sports win a set of games and £10,000' and also an 'EA Sports' booklet of other games they make. In a black plastic moulded section is the disc itself with grey and white chequers design and title, logos etc, but with a large quantity of black text going around its circumference. The reverse of the disc is black. The back cover has multiple game graphics in boxes and general information down the left side, a black background on the left with PlayStation information and the barcode. At the base from the left are more logos and game information and copyrights etcetera.
