    ipdb.notes
    A New York distributor ad found in The Cash Box, May-25-1943, Section 2 (For Sale Ads), was selling six of these games "converted so that every bump scores 1000 instead of original 200, making it a very high score game that encourages competitive play." It would be interesting if any of these six games has survived to today.
