Notes: | On the lower apron, the manufacturer referred to the flipper buttons as "control buttons". The Aug-6-1949 issue of the The Billboard has an article on page 101 that is dated June 30 and states this game "is now in production". It also indicated the maximum displayed point score. Compare the playfield layout to that of Chicago Coin's 1949 'Football'. When comparing playfield images shown here to each other, we see that the "100,000 When Lit" red and cream-colored bumper caps are not in the same places. We have no flyer image of this game or other manufacturer advertising to help us determine their correct factory-installed location. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
