    This is not a pinball machine. This is a device called an "electronic upright" or just "upright". Also called a "flasher type" slot machine. It does not payout cash. The credit meter increments instead, allowing for continued play without insertion of additional coins. Curiously, the payout symbols are from a deck of playing cards while the theme of the backglass is music and dancing, typically not where card playing occurs. This game was released to production on 9-1-60. In an article in Cash Box, Oct-22-1960, page 78, Bally announced they started shipping this game "this week."
