Historical Notes

Artist Bob Timm told us he did both the backglass and playfield for this game while he was at Ad Posters. He said cabinet art was always done at the cabinet maker and, as far as he knew, none of the game artists had anything to do with it. His signature can be seen on the backglass in the lower right corner and next to the lady's right foot. On this game, Harry Williams reused the same upper playfield wireform design from another game he designed, Williams' 1954 'Skyway'.
