    ipdb.notes
    This is the Add-a-ball version of the replay game Bally's 1967 'Rocket III' made for Italy. This version has no add-a-ball relay or jack for it and is not to be confused with a replay game that may have the optional add-a-ball relay installed in the lower cabinet. The schematic part number for this Model 800-B is W-1042-40d. The backglass is identical in silkscreening to the replay version except it does not have a replay window. The backbox has an Added Ball Unit in place of the Replay Unit and the added balls are displayed using what would be the 1 to 9 match numbers on the replay version (the 0 number is not wired for use). The SHOOT AGAIN wording on the backglass is not used as the lamp hole in the insert behind it is not wired. The lower left area inside the backbox has a vacant space where a Match Unit would be in the replay version and in that empty space is typically affixed a paper sign advertising the Parker-Kalon Swageform tapping screws as used on the score reel mounting.
