- ipdb.notes
- A Genco advertisement stated this Junior version was 16 1/2 inches wide by 36 inches long. However, the games pictured here each measure 16 1/2 inches by 32 inches.
Also produced in Canada by Canadian Games Manufacturing Company of Manitoba.
This game is a copy of Bally's 1932 'Goofy (Junior)'. According to the Encyclopedia of Pinball Vol 1, Genco escaped an injunction sought by Bally to prevent such copies by using aluminum pins and castings on the game, whereas Bally used entirely wood. Genco designer Harvey Heiss said they were able to use castings because of his experience working in the foundry.
