- IPDB 'Register' was produced in February 1934 and was renamed 'Register Junior' when the 'Senior' model appeared in May 1934. All available advertisements show only one size for this game: 38 inches long by 19 1/2 inches wide. This game was the first pinball machine with a plastic playfield (Bakelite polymer). The playfield of the Junior model was black in color while the Senior model was red. This may be the first pinball machine with a progressive score counter, instead of making the player add up the score by counting balls on the playfield at the end of the game. The arrow used on the progressive score counter came from leftover parts from the Gottlieb Husky grip tester. used
