IPDB Gottlieb specially presented two different prototypes of this game at the 1949 Coin Machine Manufacturers Show in Chicago. One of them, pictured below, was a modification to accept multiple coins and denominations. The front of its cabinet was extended underneath to accommodate the large ABT coin mechanism attached to the front door. This mechanism accepted nickels, dimes, and quarters and advanced the credit unit accordingly, without making change. The front coin door had a credit light and an illuminated credit button for dark locations. A Merkle-Korff motor, mounted underneath the playfield, would run one cycle to reset the game, simulating the thrust of a coin slide. The wood legs were uniquely painted especially for the Show, and are pictured here repainted to match the original design. The other prototype, not shown here, had glass sides with all the interior mechanisms chrome-plated and all the wires laid out in direct, straight runs! Lady Robin Hood was Gottlieb's second game with flippers, following Humpty Dumpty, and they produced 6,000 units which was nearly six times the volume of each of the three flipperless games that preceded these two games. A brief article in Billboard from Mar-6-1948 p118 reports that Nate Gottlieb was suffering from a laryngitis attack caused, Nate said, by handling so many inquiries for this game. used
