Ted, any chance you might know of a "Final Score" pinball out there ? It featured the Reds and Tigers who played in the 1940 W/S .
Thanks,Len

I'm not familiar with the "Final Score" machine.

I have very fond memories of your Williams BB machine. If I had all the nickels I put into this pinball, I'd be a really "rich guy"
nowadays

In the 1950's, this Williams BB pinball was the most popular game along the Jersey shore arcades....Asbury Park, Atlantic City,
Long Branch, Ocean City, Wildwood, and Cape May.

If I recall correctly, my Super Slugger was only in the larger arcades found in Asbury Park and Atlantic City.

I really appreciate you posting pictures of it.....I'm having flashbacks of some great memories.


I'll follow up later today with a "bad news/good news" story about my machine.

Thanks,

Marvin's Marvelous Museum! Love that place. Try to make it a point to stop there whenever I visit my parents (grew up 20 minutes away, in Pontiac). They have this huge pinball machine with flippers that are about 8" long and a ball the size of a cue ball. Sounds great - until you play it. Then you realize just how slow a ball like that will roll

It's actually the 1935 World Series - Cubs vs Tigers - not the 1940. The game came out in 1937:
