- ipdb.notes
- 'Daily Dozen' has the same playfield as Bally's 1938 'Bally Reserve'. The backglasses of these two models are similar but not identical, based on the first images we have in this listing which show a backglass having two rows of numbers displayed at an incline, unlike the backglass of 'Reserve' which shows level rows. If this Daily Dozen backglass with inclined rows is genuine, the incline implies that the backbox insert would also have inclined rows of light bulbs, unlike what we would expect for Reserve. We don't know what other differences there may be between the two models.
A second game shown here has a backglass with level rows and thus appears to be a 'Reserve' backglass that was altered, perhaps by an operator, to indicate the name 'Daily Dozen'. Its center area clearly has been altered since it left the factory. We were unable to learn from the owner if the rows of bulbs in the backbox insert were inclined or level, to assist in any determination if this particular cabinet body properly belongs to the Reserve model and not the Daily Dozen model, assuming there are concrete differences in cabinet art and internal mechanisms between the two models.
