- ipdb.notes
- The manufacturer's original playfield drawing (not shown here) is stamped ORIGINAL, is dated 2/12/59, and has the signed initials HEW. The manufacturer's Tool Room copy of this drawing (also not shown here) is stamped MASTER, drawn 4/30/59, completed 5/20/59.
Pictured in this listing is a game with cabinet serial number 45907 and with a backglass having a deep purple background color instead of the typical light blue color found on other examples of this game. The owner stated that the previous owner bought the game from a New Jersey operator who had bought it new and operated it on location. The playfield does not appear to be different than the other examples. We note that the manufacturer's flyer shows a dark backglass, not suggestive of light blue. Of the few serial numbers we know for this production run, serial number 45907 is numerically near the beginning. Because of that and because of the flyer color, we designate this game as Early Production.
A better copy of the flyer than the one we show here indicates that the flippers are a dark color which means they came from the factory as red, not white.
