Bally FIREBALL (E.M.) Reproduction Backglass Now Available for Purchase on the CPR Store:
http://www.classicplayfields.com/store-backglass.html

Genuine tempered glass (not a Translite and Not on Plexiglass). Genuine 7-color ink-silkscreened. This particular glass is made on a heavier 4mm (thicker) panel. Beyond a replacement, perfect as a wall hanging in your gameroom, this glass is relevant all on its own. Polished corners and edges, ready for new trim and lift bar (or use your old ones). Turnkey replacement, finally get rid of that old chipped, crackled, or shedding original backglass.

It's up next....

Quoted from dasvis:

Stu - What's the status on the Bally Old Chicago backglass that you teased us with a while back

#8 8 years ago

You would have to ask Jeff Miller, he did the artwork on this project & I do not own the game so I have nothing here to compare it to.....

Quoted from Azatotht:

Why is the bottom area flames pattern so different than on the original ?

Other than the "color" of the masking ( Light Blocking ) what is different?

Quoted from robotronjohn:

although I must say I am a little surprised the masking is different....

The glass that Jeff Miller was using must have been from a Different OEM Manufacturer than the one you have shown a picture of...Keep in mind that there were 4 Different Backglass, Playfield & Plastics Manufacturers that bally used back in the day, Bally did not print in-house and did Multiple runs through multiple manufacturers ( none of which had the same artwork as the others ), we have see Tons of these discrepancies in the past 10 years of CPR being in business ).

Also keep in mind that whether you have a glass from Manufacturer A, B, C, or D, they are ALL Correct as they were all Original.

FYI: The "masking" is not the Color Graphics on the Front of the glass, Masking is the "Light Blocking" Layer on the Back....just you know for the future

Unfortunately for us ( CPR ) the Fireball Backglass has been a huge dud in sales. To date we have only sold 1. That's right 1 !
So much for all the pinsiders that cried for us do this glass.....Just goes to show that no matter how many people rally behind their keyboards and say they want something, that when the time comes to pony up they all go and hide....Which is why we don't really put a lot of stock in the cheerleading threads for projects that people "want" done.....
So we are really reluctant to even try to do Plastics or god forbid a Playfield......
