    Yup, they're known as the Cadillac of the P&B Baseball machines..
    Wonder what she went for..

    Quoted from rollitover:

    It says
    "Price Realized $1250USD"
    Very reasonable I'd say.

    I'd compare that to maybe paying $12,500 for a brand new 2020 Cadillac..
    I traveled one state over to pay $3,000 for mine, and was extremely pleased..
    Funny story how I found that one, and glad I had..

    Quoted from ZNET:

    1956 Star Slugger.

    Yes, I have Star Slugger, but I'm pretty certain it's a 1955. "Star Super Slugger might be the 1956.
    I knew some had only 1 inning, but hadn't known not all had the 3 singles hole behind each ramp.
    Are you sure the innings are adjustable on Star Slugger. I can't remember, but either way, I'd always
    have it set for a 3 inning game..

    Quoted from ZNET:

    These are the reasons that Star Slugger fetches 3 to 5 times more among collectors.

    I did do some cosmetic work (spent quite some time) but was fortunate to get one in the condition that it was/is in..
    The machine was in the Gentleman's basement since 1960, and didn't move an inch. It was taller than the bottom
    of the floor joyces (how do you spell joyces?) and the head was squeezed half way up between two joyces. We had
    to take the two rear legs off first, un-squeeze the head from the joyces, set the rear of the machine on a lower chair,
    then take off the head..
    Note: Was very careful throughout this procedure. That may be the only head of an Arcade piece that is all the weight
    of a Bingo head, and I'm thinking heavier..
