    ipdb.notes
    'Goal-Kick' was reissued as Genco's 1934 'Gridiron'. According to the Encyclopedia of Pinball Vol 2, the reissue was due to poor acceptance of the name 'Goal-Kick'. The playfield kickers were used under license from Pacific Amusement Manufacturing Company which held the patent for a device that elevated a ball from under the playfield as well as propelling the ball.
