IPDB Snap traps (10). This game has a shooter lane to allow the ball to loop 360 degrees around the playfield before entering into play. The outhole trough is very long and curved. Above it are the words 'FAUSSE NOTE' [French: false note]. Two metal rails form a vertical lane in the upper playfield with its upper opening at the top of the playfield as a skill shot. This lane delivers the ball directly to a trap hole in the center playfield. This center trap hole is inside a U-shaped rail forming a cup such that once the trap is shut, future balls would land in this cup. In the pictures we saw of this game, we cannot see how these trapped balls would release to the player at start of game unless the U-shaped rail itself pivots up to release them. The playfield has a gold-colored background. The center trap hole has painted around it a jazz musician in black tuxedo. A musician in red tuxedo is painted around each of the other holes and at the opening of the vertical lane. In the poor-quality images we saw, the musicians either were wearing black-face or were painted with uncomplimentary racial caricatures. The upper and lower aprons are unpainted wood. The lower apron has a large round gold label on each side with text. The name of the game is displayed in the middle area of the playfield in green stenciled lettering. used
