    ipdb.notes
    According to the Encyclopedia of Pinball Vol 2, Harry Williams, designer of this game, gave Bally the manufacturing rights to the 40 x 20 Junior model while his company Automatic Amusements made the 46 x 22 Senior model. Under the agreement, Bally had distribution rights to both models. Williams ended up shipping Senior games to Bally to meet their rush of orders. Bally in turn listed both sizes in their advertising. The Bally playfields are slightly different from the Automatic Amusement version and use the word �Bouncer� in the upper playfield, replacing the word �Rebound�. See also Automatic Amusements' 1934 'Action (Sr)' and Bally's 1934 'Action (Jr)'.
