- IPDB This playfield is a Whiffle clone. The game pictured here with an Instruction card has number 1544 stamped in the wood on the upper left ball arch. Its blue and white instruction card indicates the original coinage was nickels, but the game has been modified to accept pennies. The owner of the game states the coin slide has no information on it. The other two games are each missing the instruction card. Automatic Games Company was located at 2490 University Street in St. Paul, Minnesota. Hi-Lo appears to be their only game. An article in Automatic Age, May 1932 page 156 states that a new manufacturer, the A.M. Walzer Company, took over the entire manufacturing facilities at 2490 University and also mentioned that Hi-Lo was one of the games that Walzer would make. However, we have not yet found evidence of a Hi-Lo game attributed to Walzer. used
