Quoted from BubbaK:This machine does appear to be all original. I don't have a great eye, but I couldn't see any touchups or paintwork anywhere. There was some question on the cabinet color, but the frame around the playfield matches the cabinet. Some comments I got from people thought it should be a red cabinet. I couldn't tell if the cabinet is something like Robin Egg Blue or more of a green. Once it gets cleaned, I'm sure the color will pop.
It does seem like World Series is more readily available. A conversion kit would be neat.
Yeah, one was just restored in red, it looks great. It can be seen if you scroll down a bit in the pre-war Facebook group...

How did your friend manage to come across that one? I do wonder how many they really made of them. I've heard they were made for other countries where baseball was no popular. So there might be more oversees than here.
