Historical Notes

The backglass carries Gottlieb's famous phrase: Amusement Pinballs, as American as Baseball and Hot Dogs! The manufacturer advertised this game as having a beautiful De Luxe "New Look" cabinet with legs that attach to each side instead of each corner, requiring three bolts each. However, one bolt hole for each leg is too close to the bottom of the cabinet to allow a T-nut to be mounted on the inside cabinet wall. For these bolts, a hollow steel tube was installed to extend across the inside bottom of the cabinet at both front and rear, and with each end threaded to accept the third bolt. Compare this playfield design to the widebody Bally's 1956 'Balls-A-Poppin' which came out shortly after this game.
