- ipdb.notes
- The backbox was made with two versions of wood trim around the backglass, one was painted yellow and the other was unpainted, varnished woodgrain. Bingo documentarian Danny Leach tells us the yellow version came first, and as bingos started going overseas, the primary distributor in Belgium realized that promoting the game as 'woodrail' was a successful strategy. Bally changed the trim to varnished wood to help promote the games for this overseas market. This second version is nicknamed 'Bonanza 2'.
Both versions have the key lock at the top front of the trim. In contrast, the game in the flyer had its locks on the sides. We notice that the Bally bingo machines that precede 'Bonanza' have side-lock trim while the ones that followed 'Bonanza' have top-lock trim.
