Picked up a bowling Queen in awesome shape. Still has all original paperwork coin box and keys. Some quick pics playfield no wear and backglass no flaking. Cabinet is in great shape. Heres some before the cleanup pics. Original schematic is taped to door still. Guy said his dad bought it in 65. I am on a lucky streak finding these gems.

Craigslist believe it or not. Almost was going to pass but figured a look couldnt hurt. Glad I did

Beautiful game! Very nice find.

This one sat on Mr. Pinball for six months before I decided to go look at it and, obviously, it was still there.

Actually, to get them all would be 12 balls.

Have never done this either on my Bowling Queen.

Got 11 a few times... but never 12.

That game is in like new condition inside and out,so clean and unmolested. The top arch indicates the 95,000 plays,but the rest of the game looks like it has way less plays. Thanks for sharing such a rare find.

I just got finished with my 1976 Williams Blue Chip with only 18,000 original plays and was such a pleasure to restore. Enjoy your Bowling Queen.

The other night i got all 12 balls again on my Mibs. What a challening task on that playfield layout design.

Got 11 on mine a couple of times recently, but never 12. Got all four outlanes the other night for the first time. That in itself is no mean feat.

All my tilt bobs on my games are set to the lowest factory setting allowed and are in the favor of the player and work perfect for home use.The EM games are most enjoyable to me when you are allowed to shake and nudge them.
