- ipdb.notes
- The Encyclopedia of Pinball Vol 1 page 137 lists 'Question Mark' as February 1933 and an 'Improved Question Mark' as July 1933. The Billboard ad shown here and dated Jul-1-1933 page 66 does make reference to "the Improved Better Question Mark" but then offers it at clearance prices, admitting that they want to make room for their next game. We don't know what was improved on this July version and it's possible that the manufacturer simply advertised it that way to encourage sales. The EOP1 does not list any games for this manufacturer after the Improved Question Mark so perhaps a "next game" never happened.
