    ipdb.notes
    'Magik Carpet' is a conversion of United's 1947 'Hawaii', a flipperless game. In the upper playfield, a passive bumper was replaced with a pop bumper. Two Rebound Counters were added to the middle playfield using switches that are dissimilar to other switches used in the game. Two flippers were added to the lower playfield, wired to operate independently of each other. All wiring for these additions are not part of the loomed cabling. The blue areas of the playfield look like they were painted over the original art and the owner states these areas flake away fairly easily. These blue areas all have a transparent golden border to them, reminiscent of the borders seen on water-based decals, and these borders may have possibly aged from having been clear when new. The cabinet has been repainted and the paint design underneath has not been determined. The backglass appears to be unfinished in its conversion, having a large black background. The flipper buttons are placed in a nice symmetry on each side of the cabinet, like a factory installation. It seems unlikely that an operator would have converted this game, because the unattractive backglass implies this was not a game that any operator would have purchased to retrofit and then put on location as is. Until more information is known, we believe this game was converted by a company in the business to do such conversions, yet they did not finish the backglass for whatever reason. The score card format and font is similar to the one appearing on 1949�s Bazaar, a flipperless game converted by Nate Schneller, Inc. It is likely Schneller produced this Magik Carpet.
