New (ancient) pinball day - part 2!


Recommended Posts

Only 2 weeks ago I was fortune enough to pick up a Gottlieb Just 21 from 1950 https://www.aussiearcade.com/showthread.php/90285-New-(ancient)-pinball-day

 

Headed off to Sydney this morning and was actually in 2 minds as the shed is full and didn't really need another game.

 

Went off to look at a Gottlieb Mibs from 1969 and walked in to view the machine and there were 2 other games that caught my eye - a Williams Turf Champ from 1958 and a Gottlieb Cross Town from 1966.

 

As woodrails very rarely surface in Australia the Mibs was forgotten and the other 2 purchased.

 

Actually in 2 minds about keeping the Turf Champ and picking up the Cross Town on Saturday (the joys of the VE Commodore wagon).

 

The game is almost working, the playfield and backglass are original and has a repro set of plastics and caps. The cab has been painted sometime through her life.

 

I can see the game being traded off and have had offers already.

 

Also note that the game was actually a gambling game and one of the horses has been replaced with a zebra :lol

I was kinda tempted but the insides of the head looked pretty knocked about.
