ipdb.notes
IPDB Bally documentation lists this game as released to production on 4-19-74 and shows it schematic part number there as W-826-55. The schematic itself shows it as W-826-55d. A Factory "Sound Kit" SK-444b (a chime unit) for Model #1017 is pictured in this listing. We don't know if the factory or distributor offered it as an option for extra purchase by the operator or if it was provided upon request as a free-of-charge modification. It was one of many such kits obtained from an old-time operator on the east coast USA and each kit came in a factory paper bag which was very damaged over time (and not shown here). See the Files Section for its wiring instructions. The non-electrical flipper-shaped rebound bumper is labeled under the playfield as the "Rebound Unit". See also Bally's 1974 'Golden Gate 75'. used
