- Not to be confused with Model 140 Bank Pool.
This deluxe Model 148 is 18 inches shorter than Model 152 Williams' 1955 'Senior Deluxe Bank-Pool'. Both games show a hyphenated name of Bank-Pool on their cabinets near the coin slide.
The earliest Billboard manufacturer ad we found for Model 148 is dated Nov-12-1955 page 170.
The two promotional photos shown here are each incorrectly marked as Model 140 which is not the deluxe model shown in them.
Williams documentation lists these model numbers and the names they listed for them:
140 BANK POOL
148 DELUXE BANK POOL
152 SENIOR DELUXE BANK POOL
161 SENIOR DELUXE LITE-UP BANK POOL
163 3-HOLE DELUXE BANK POOL LITE
172 DELUXE BANK POOL (MAGIC TOP)
