    ipdb.notes
    First game from this manufacturer to use drop targets. The game in the manufacturer's flyer appears to have the so-called "inverted backbox" where the front frame is wider at the bottom than at the top, as if "upside-down" from typical Bally backboxes, leaving a small ledge at the base of the backglass. Pictured in this listing is an Early Production backbox with serial number 1032 and showing the inverted backbox. Also shown is a comparison picture where this backbox is placed next to one from later in production.
