- IPDB This is not a pinball machine. It is a puck bowler that uses targets instead of bowling pins. It appears in some Genco documentation mixed in with pinball machine data. Various descriptions in Billboard say it is 8 feet by 2 feet in size, "combines pin game and shuffle board attraction", and "scores much the way 5-ball play points are recorded". Production start date: 08/12/49 Production end date: 11/19/49 In an article in The Billboard, Sep-17-1949 page 118, Bally introduced a sample 'Glider' shuffleboard game to operators in New York. used
