Thats a Wico Commander joystick, not an atari one?
Bought one of these for my A500 in 1987 and it's still like new:)

but nice spot!

It's the same joystick Clarissa uses on her A2000 in the 90s family sitcom Clarissa Explains It All http://richardlagendijk.nl/foto/cip/video_clarissa_explains_it_all_01.jpg

I have one of these, we used to call it the baseball bat stick, it was my little brother's favourite.

8^D The real question here is why Amiduffer was looking for Bordellos with Atari(s) in them?  LOL!

Hah! I never knew she had an A2000! And that was at the peak of my Amiga days too, can't believe I didn't notice.

Erm, yeah, I was also a big Clarissa fan :/

A) Because prostitutes never use Amiga's.

B) If you beat the Madam at Tank Battle, you get a free "session".

C) I was researching abandoned railroads in the northern states, and an unusual tourist site website caught my eye.
