Historical Notes
The replay version is Gottlieb's 1965 'Buckaroo'. Compare these playfields to that of Gottlieb's 1962 'Flipper Cowboy'. It was not uncommon for operators in Italy to modify games for 5-digit scoring. Most often, the new digit was a fake "0" but in some cases they added a real counter. We previously showed a date for this game of June 1965. The new date is per Gottlieb documentation.
