ipdb.notes
IPDB In the Encyclopedia of Pinball Vol 1, author Dick Bueschel lists a "Stop and Sock" counter game made in October 1931 by the Northwest Coin Machine Company. The only connection we have seen thus far between that company and this game is the ad pictured here from November 1931. The ad pictures a game looking perfectly identical to Gottlieb's 1931 'Stop and Sock'. Although we know Northwest Coin Machine to be a manufacturer of other pin games, all during 1932, we wonder if they merely acted as distributor for Gottlieb for this one. More information is needed to either confirm or delete this listing. used
