- IPDB This is Not A Pinball. It is an arcade game shown with a date of October 1966 on a list of "Equipment Introduced During 1966" (per The Billboard, Jan-7-1967, page 58). The manufacturer's flyer states, "These machines have been on location for over 10 months, as of October 1, 1966, and are trouble free." The flyer, then, was distributed after October 1, apparently after they were satisfied with field-testing the game. Cash Box reported in June and July of 1967 that a distributor in Los Angeles indicated this game was "still selling like hotcakes" including an order for export to the Far East. Two years later, the manufacturer advertised this game in an April 1969 issue of The Billboard as having "a new, attractive red and white speckled cabinet." The manufacturer's 1969 address has been a private residence since 1952. used
