I've got a 1950s backglass that is in pretty nice original condition, with the exception of several areas that were intentionally modified. It is a Bally bingo game - a gambling machine - and the backglass has been altered to change the odds, as was required to operate in Seattle in the 1950s. I've read enough to know that bgresto is widely regarded to be the go-to guy for backglass restorations. My question is this: Does anyone have experience with Steve at bgresto touching up an original glass? How did it turn out for you? I'm not talking about a backglass that was stripped and rescreened - my interest is in hearing from those who had a backglass that was "touched up," meaning it still has original ink combined with areas of restoration. If you have been down this road, can you share before and after photos?
Thanks.
