I loaned this game to Jim Swenson so he could do one of his excellent shop jobs similar to what he did on my Joker Poker. I too shop games, but when Jim would like to do some restoration work on an old game, he knows who to call - me! Per usual, Jim did an excellent job restoring the game to where it could be played and looked as nice as was possible to accomplish. The game was made in 1966 and when I got it, it was in pretty bad shape. The game had set in an outside shed (people, please don't do this to Pinball games) exposed to the weather and the cabinet had lots of flaking paint. The backglass wasn't great either, but wasn't beyond usability. The game is somewhat odd in the sense that the game box has a "jog" at the bottom. Not sure why they did this, but it makes the game somewhat unwieldy when moving it. Jim did a great job and I've played probably 100 games on it so far with no problems. Unfortunately, due to space reasons I had to stand the game on end in my basement along with other games that may find themselves in this position until space opens up to set them up again. Once I set it up again I'll take some pictures of Jim's fine work. Click on any image to display the larger size picture. Note that it might take a minute to display one of the images due to the file size being large. Don't forget to hit the Back arrow to come back to this page.
