Doesn't look so great compared to mine; although, the playfield and cabinet look great compared to others I have seen.

Below this reply are two more shots of the backglass, since it seems to be a topic of interest regarding the Fireball Classic (FC) game I have for sale.

I should point out that my description focused on how vivid the colors were on the playfield and I did not comment on the backglass. However, I would still argue that the backglass has retained much of its color and has no major wear spots, and, is, therefore, much nicer than most FC backglasses out there which frequently look more like the one PDXMONKEY posted (thanks for posting that comparative example!).

Finally, I would also like to point out that the offered price is less than the reported average of FC transactions per Pinside and other typical sources of this information.

In any event, let's keep the discussion of the game going so that it stays current in the pinside forum chrono topic list! Thanks.

Now, if some of you would start replying to my Six Million Dollar Man and Space Odyssey listings I have for sale as well, we could keep all three current in the pinside forum list
