Recently got a Gottlieb Lariat and have been slowly going through it. Half of the light bulbs are missing and have found a mixture of bulbs in in the machine-(Blinker 755, #44, and standard 755)
What is the correct bulb to use?
Thanks!

Gottlieb EM's of that era usually had #44 everywhere with a few blinking lamps in the back box.

It could use some 755s but in the backbox, and the wood around the socket would likely be dished in to accomodate the lamp. Those run hot though. The flashing ones normally only come on at game over or when turned on, so you might be able to tell that way if some backbox sockets should be 755 -or- 755 flashers.

44's for the playfield
47's for the backbox
