- ipdb.notes
- Ray Maloney stated in The Billboard that the original Bally's 1935 'Frisky' was discontinued due to tremendous demand for the game 'Traffic' at a time when they were adjusting to their new factory location. Due to operator response, Bally started a second production run of this new, improved 'Frisky' with a different design on its larger cabinet, the addition of a back panel, a new award system, and a number of new unspecified features "to add action and suspense".
