Both are Italian re-releases of classic games. The first one is Gunslinger, which already had an interesting cover, the German Waffenslinger release. This time we've added "Out Of Law", which is the Visiogame release. The second cover scan is for Pancho, and the re-release is from Armati. Glad to have these in the collection. Enjoy!
