- Snap traps (7), Diverter (1). Pushing on handle on left front of cabinet drops balls to reset playfield. The dual coin mechanism accepts 5 pfg for 1 play or 10 pfg for 2 plays. The second play is started by again pushing the handle on the coin mechanism, without having to insert another coin.

- The ad indicates this game is a conversion of one or more other games.
The game pictured here is located in the USA. The inside bottom of the cabinet has the date 1 Nov 1933 stamped in ink, but since this game is a conversion and may have used parts from more than one machine, we cannot know to which game that date belongs. The cash box is missing but a hasp that was probably used to secure it can be seen on the bottom board.
Interesting comments from a collector who had access to this game:
The mechanical parts of this game operate as smoothly as a Swiss watch. It just has that precision feel to it. The coin mechanism never jams. You push in that reset bar and it sounds and feels like a scientific instrument. When the balls hit the score reels, they just flip over silently and never stick. Then there's the cabinet. Look at that hack job under the coin slot. Even the top of the side rail, below the coin plate, is not cut well. Obviously, the donor game had a much different type of coining. I did not photograph it, but under the instruction card is a long open area in the wood, there for no obvious reason. Again, probably something to do with the original game.
