I'll gladly post pics of mine. They aren't rare or pristine but they were both destined for the scrap heap when I got them so I'm still proud of them.

Quoted from Shapeshifter:Fantastic!
My only suggestion is for wall art/ceiling etc to add to the ambience.
I can see where you're coming from but picture yourself in that room and tell me you'd see anything but those machines. 
Quoted from PinballHelp:lol, we should play "Pinball UNO".. one person posts a pic of his game, then someone else has to post a pic of the same game, then another one..
Ready? Go!
Quoted from Rat_Tomago:Is it fun to play?
It is. Rolling over the switches to spell out HOTLINE is a lot of fun because it's just hard enough to keep you interested even if you don't have a great score.
The folks who engineered this one earned their money. Just ingenious.

Finally played a game on it last night. I thought it was pretty fun for a game from the early, early 70's. It's slower than later GTB games but it's got some fun touches. I love me some pop bumpers down by the flippers and these didn't disappoint. Being the first Gottlieb game with drops, they definitely didn't know what to do with them. Didn't take em long to figure it out though.
Quoted from boilerman:I want the backglass on that one, I like all the hippie art like 4 square and a few others
It is pretty great. It's a machine that could just be kept for the art alone.

Quoted from angrysaladman:Heres my one and only machine. I haven't seen it posted yet. Just received it within the last month, has some wear and tear and the green jets stick sometimes. Seeing as its summer in Milwaukee not much will be done until winter.
That's a really fun machine. Enjoy it.

An OXO that my son and I are in the process of fixing together. He has asked to help with other projects but I was always knee deep in fixing something so there wasn't a lot he could do. This time we are starting from the beginning and he'll be involved in every step. I think he'll really like seeing it come back to life.

Thanks Ken. I'm really enjoying it and just glad he has an interest.

Quoted from Rat_Tomago:Here's a new and better video of Surf Side. In this video I explain all the rules and play a one handed game.

Thanks Rat. I forgot that I've actually played a lot of that game. So fun. Thanks for posting the video.
Quoted from EMsInKC:That's a bgresto glass, btw. I'm pretty happy with it. The score reels bulbs show through a bit but other than that, it's pretty darned good. Much better than the trashed glass that was in the game, and that glass will never be screened, I'm sure.
Looks very nice. It is such a cool looking BG that I'll bet it is nice to have such a nice one to look at.

This Globe Trotter has been mine for a while but I thought I would post a couple of pictures. It is definitely the most rare machine I have owned. The paint is in great shape thanks to a gross varnish someone put on along the way. Needs a new coin door made and half a cabinet repaint but it plays amazing. It has been my favorite game to play since I fixed it.

Quoted from Kolchak357:Love the art on that Gemini. That era of Gottlieb art was so good imo.
Agreed. I've never seen that one before. It is gorgeous!

Quoted from goldenboy232:Such a fun game. I have the identical two-player version Quick Draw that I restored several years ago. Still among my very favorites in my collection -- just keeps you coming back for "one more game".
It's true. That double bonus from ABC is such a thrill when it happens.
