    10 balls for 5 cents. Walnut finished cabinet advertised as 47 inches long, 23 inches wide, and 34 inches high. The manufacturer pointed out that five balls each of two different colors allowed for two persons to play for 5 cents while also stating that any number of persons could play.
    ipdb.notes
    According to the color Billboard ad shown here, the cabinet itself was the "exclusive design" of Mr. A. L. Yund. We can find no other information about him. Price when new: $165 The Encyclopedia of Pinball Volume 1 lists 'Casino' as the only game produced by Indoor Games of America. The Billboard ads shown here indicate that by April 1932, their entire factory output was purchased by Sicking Mfg. Co. and offered at a low price of $47.50. According to these ads, by May 7th only 325 games were left for sale, and by May 14th only 85 games were left. It would appear that Indoor Games of America priced their game too high for the demand and went out of business as a result. Encyclopedia of Pinball Volume 1 does not list Sicking Manufacturing Company as having made any pin games during 1930-1933.
