- IPDB We don't know how many of these games were made, but a Coin Machine Journal ad from March 1935 (shown here) indicated "750 games have been on testing locations for nearly 2 years". If true and not a marketing boast, this game went into production in 1933. We have found no confirmed reference to this game prior to 1935. Manufacturer ads indicate the playfield is interchangeable but do not specify with what is it interchangeable. Perhaps other Whirl Pool playfields, is all. used
