- ipdb.notable_features
- 5 balls for 5 cents, or for 10 cents. Tilting playfield. The left-side knob on front of cabinet is used to place the ball on the playfield. The handle on the cabinet front is used to move balls through the maze by inclining the playfield from side to side and from front to rear. Cabinet advertised as 23 inches long, 18 inches wide, and four feet high.
Game operation is entirely mechanical. The only electrical part of this game is the fluorescent light over the playfield, below the marquee.
- ipdb.notes
- One game pictured here has two serial numbers, each number stamped inside the cabinet and on the coin box. The number 93 is stamped into the wood itself and may have been done by the manufacturer. The number KBBJ91 is ink-stamped onto the wood and may have been an inventory number from an operator. We don't have confirmation of this, however.
A solid state variety of this game is Williams' 1983 'Rat Race'.
Based on the manufacturer's ads in Billboard, sometime between October 1942 and December 1944 the company name was changed from International Mutoscope Reel Co., Inc.
