ipdb.notes
IPDB An article in Cash Box, Feb-2-1963, page 72, stated that Midway announced this game "last week" placing our date for this game in January 1963. Unlike the game in the flyer, all games in this listing have a wireform at the lower end of each side lane. Nearby, there are rubbered posts which, again, are not shown in the flyer. The right-side rubbered posts have a smaller wireform within them. In the examples where two posts are used on each side, they appear to be in the same place on each playfield. One post covers the same painted star on each game. These posts and wireforms may have been a production change or a field modification issued by the manufacturer. The example showing three posts on each side may be where a third post was added by an operator. Only one of the several games in this listing has the original cabinet paint found in the flyer. On this game, no serial number was found anywhere, inside or out, except the number '340' was stamped in the wood on the right edge of the removable lockdown bar. used
ipdb.notable_features
IPDB Minimum 10 balls for 10 cents. Slingshots (4), Standup targets (2). The playfield shields are all made of metal. The lockdown bar's top surface is Formica. Hidden beneath each of the 'Stars' and 'Clowns' shields is a metal loop to steer balls down the side lane located behind the 'Extra Ball' shield. Each side lane rollover switch resets the targets. The slingshots are located at the Action rebounds at the bottom of the playfield and at the 100-point rebounds, for a total of four. The upper two rebounds on each side of playfield have no slingshots but have holes drilled for them. Under the playfield, there are no cut wires, screw holes, discolorations, or other evidence that slingshots ever were installed at these holes. A continuous-stepping unit inside the game controls the Extra Ball lights and the Reset Target lights, illuminating them in a different combination every time the ball hits a 10-point target. A three-position plug allows the operator to set the frequency of the Extra Ball light on this unit. The replay mechanism uses two small plastic wheels, each numbered 0-9. In one example of this game, a thin pin stopped the tens wheel from turning past the '1', making the maximum displayed replays be 19. We do not know if this pin can be removed by the operator. Maximum displayed point score is 9,990 points. used
