- ipdb.notes
- All the photographs in this listing are of the same game, photographed by different owners. This particular example has two channels cut out of the wood of its lower apron, each covered by a custom-looking metal cover, indicating it is the unique apron used previously on Keeney's 1937 'Fire Ball'. The game pictured in the Billboard ad shown here does not have these channels. We don't know if the manufacturer made use of leftover Fire Ball aprons or if this was one instance done by an operator.
Maybe Keeney had used entire Fire Ball cabinets in making this game, as we note the cabinet art for Keen-O coincides with the art of our pictured example of Fire Ball as well as its payout version, Keeney's 1937 'Magic Lamp'.
