ipdb.notes
IPDB We previously showed a date for this game of 1932 taken from the Encyclopedia of Pinball Vol 1 but we don't know if this version is the 1932 "Sharp's Shooter" or the 1933 "Improved Sharp's Shooter" that are both listed in that book. We don't know if the plywood stand on the game pictured here is original. The ball shooter cover indicates 'PAT 1890950'. Charles L Sharp applied for Patent #1890950 on March 31, 1932, granted December 13, 1932. The patent is titled GAME BOARD but the text sought to only patent the ball shooter in combination with the runway. Another bagatelle reportedly with the same patent number is Unknown Manufacturer's 'Bagatelle And Baseball'. used
