- 7 balls for 1 cent. Advertised as having a black and silver playing field with an ebony finished cabinet 32 inches long by 16 inches wide, and with a "novel new tail spin feature" which the ad does not define and is not obvious in the image we saw.
- ipdb.notes
- The sole image we saw of this game showed only an overhead view of the game so we could not discern if it was a counter game or a pin table.
This is the first pin game made by the Chicago Coin Machinery Company and apparently their last. They began in 1931 by making accessories for pin game machines. The partners in the firm were H.R. Nelson and C.J. Sandberg. They are not to be confused with the much larger and more successful Chicago Coin Machine Manufacturing Company which lasted until 1977.
