Bingo Pinballs

Sometimes it seems that the pinball-gods are keeping an eye on us down here – Cool – I love this one`

 

Jay at the IPDB sends out a list, a mystery-list, to a few of us of Bally bingos that has a couple of unknowns and missing machines on it`

Thanks Jay, very interesting and will help all of us continue to track-and-trace the history of these games`

 

One machine on the list is the one below`

 

Bingo Pinball = Mississippi Showboat

 

I had never heard of the machine, but I write in about the Sirmo New Orleans connection that exists with the “end-of-days” at Bally

and at that same time: Dennis spots a picture of the true Mississippi on Facebook – Sweet`

 

Thanks Dennis: The machine you see below is perhaps the “only one” of these Bally Bingos ever produced – Enjoy!

Bally’s paint job here is wonderfully creative - A great tribute to New Orleans!!

 

 

Well since all the 2015-Hubbub, Phil has posted this and the IPDB has done a wonderful job documenting it too - Very Cool`

I like Phil’s pictures the best, they definitely speak to this being a “design prototype on early release” as well does his notes!

 

 

The IPBD reveals the Serial Number and what a Doozy it is!

…please know that, other than Continental, this is the only Bally we have seen with an “E” incorporated in the SN,

 

 

Hmmm!

 

 

 

Misc 2019`

 

Well being curious I looked at the Internet today, some +3-years later now, and there doesn’t seem to be anything new`

I guess we will have to wait and look a little harder for additional resources and clues – I wonder if there are any`
