    The name Gee-Bee represented the owners, Eddie and Maurice Ginsburg. Gee Bee Manufacturing Company moved their facility from 900-910 West Van Buren Street to a larger one at 14-16 North May Street in order to make this game. This game premiered at the February 1934 Chicago Exposition. According to The Encyclopedia of Pinball page 22, on March 6, 1934 the Gee-Bee Manufacturing Company changed their name to G.B. Daval Company as an intermediate step in transitioning manufacturing and rights to the Daval Manufacturing Company. This game continued production as G.B. Daval Company Inc.'s 1934 'American Beauty (Improved)'.
