Historical Notes

This game is a conversion kit of Europlay's 'Jaws'. We previously showed a date of 1980 but a serial number tag (shown here) is stamped '29 May 1979'. The playfield appears to borrow from Bally's 1978 'Playboy'. In this listing is a game with a cabinet reused from Bally's Evel Knievel. We don't know if cabinets were reused from other games as well. In addition to artist Michele Martinelli's signature on this game, we see both the playfield and backglass have a signature "B Kobra". Italian collector Federico Croci asked Martinelli about it. He replied that he had guys sometimes helping him to complete the work when they were in a hurry, but he can't remember their exact names. They were guys working at the printing facility where the backglasses and playfields were made. We have seen this name shown as "Kobra B" on at least one other game.
