    Spring bumpers (12), Free play hole (1). The playfield walls are lined with a leather-like material instead of metal springs like other games. A tag inside the lower cabinet advises the operator of this information: The Free Game unit is built to operate for 1 or 2 Free Game Awards. To change from one to the other, remove screws from the red bracket. Move bracket over and fasten into the other holes provided.
    ipdb.notes
    Circa 1938-39. The latest date stamped on the coin chute is 1938. The six-chute parachute drop ride pictured in the backglass could have been the six-chute "Pair-O-Chutes", a converted observation tower in Chicago's Riverview Park. Its success inspired its creator to build the 11-chute Parachute Jump at New York's Coney Island for the 1939 World's Fair. Riverview Park closed in 1967. The backglass and playfield designs resemble Daval Mfg. Co.'s 1939 'Liberty'.
