The third (center) ramp is metal painted red and raises up during the game to allow player to shoot for the Bullseye feature and retracts after each out. Inside walls of cabinet have artwork. The diameter of the hole in the red plastic bullseye target can be any of four sizes shipped from the factory with each game: 7/8 inch, 1 inch, 1 1/4 inch, and 1 3/8 inch.

    ipdb.notes
    The backglass and the upper playfield marquee both spell the name as two words, "Bulls Eye", while the manufacturer's flyer text and the schematic spell it as one word, "Bullseye". One game pictured here seems to have a blue-on-white cabinet while other games pictured here seem to have green-on-white. The difference may be due to differences in camera photography. In fact, in one image, the left side of the cabinet appears slightly blue while the front of the same cabinet appears green. We are not sure what the original color shade is, and differences in the camera used, the lighting, and color fading of the cabinet itself all may be factors in the variations that we see. In the Files section is a manufacturer's letter to operators dated April 17, 1967 advising them that a previous version of the schematic was in error. It references a corrected schematic and states "This change will apply to all schematics shipped with the games between March 24, 1967 and April 4, 1967." Therefore, games shipped after April 4 would have the corrected schematic. We infer that the first games of the production run shipped on March 24, 1967 and we have modified the date of this listing to match. We don't know how to tell the differences between the two schematics versions or if the game adjustments that were stapled to the manufacturer's letter are themselves the corrections moving forward. If anyone has a schematic for this game that indicates it is a "corrected" version, please contact us.
