    ipdb.notes
    An article dated Jun-6 in The Billboard, Jun-13-1953, page 69, indicated that distributors were showing this game to operators "this week". Genco announced this game in Cash Box, Jun-20-1953 page 29, as having started production. This game is "regular play" and did not have the Match feature. Genco's next gun game, Genco's 1953 'Night Fighter', did have the Match feature and has a taller backglass and backbox because of it. An apparent reissue of this game is Genco's 1953 'Invader'.
