Notes: | The manufacturer’s original playfield drawing (not shown here) is dated 1/2/57 and has the signed initials HEW. Two other EM games with a million-point award are Gottlieb's 1957 'Royal Flush' and Billares Cordoba's 'Ferry-Boat'. The backglass artwork appears to have been inspired by the artwork of George Petty, as seen on a 1955 calendar, which is the earliest instance of this art for which we can find a date. Two examples of this game pictured here each have four bumper caps, all are blue with white marbling, and blue skirts. Our manufacturer's flyer is a bit washed out but if the caps it shows are blue, we would expect them to appear darker in that image. The promotional photo shows colored caps and skirts that are lighter in color than the nearby passive bumpers and possibly are yellow. A third example, pictured here, has four red bumper caps with white marbling and two red and two yellow skirts. We have not confirmed the correct color used on production games. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
