ipdb.notes
IPDB Licensed version of Shyvers Coin Automatic Machine Company's 1934 'Cannon Fire'. The manufacturer referred to this 46-inch model in their literature as the BIG Cannon Fire. It may also be referenced elsewhere as the Senior version. We have no confirmed pictures of this model to see how the name appears on its lower apron nameplate or how to otherwise tell it apart from the 40-inch version when measurements are not provided. According to the Encyclopedia of Pinball Vol 2, the first versions looked much like the Shyvers version, including the same cast aluminum nameplates. Mills soon upgraded the nameplate and cabinet.
