Quoted from Dayhuff:

Classic Stern "pinball", either version

If you find an EM one let me know. I'm thinking I'll have to scan one and have it recreated.

You can have this one for $50 plus s/h OR yours completely free if you come and pick it up

Looking for a backglass for a 69’ Williams Gridiron. Thanks.

#405 3 years ago

Hi guys, I have a nice 1977 Gottlieb (EM) original “Lucky Hand” backglass for sale.

The glass is quite nice. There is some flaking in the reds where the game title is, and a few other minor blemishes, including a small one under one of the square reels. Photos below.

$50 + s/h

I am still in need of an Eldorado city of gold backglass, or if someone has the ability to make a translite I would gladly buy one of those.

Bgresto has the ability to make you a backglass. Here is a link to it in his site.

Have you contacted Mayfairamusement? Don't just visit the site, send him a message as many BG's he has are not listed.

Quoted from YeOldPinPlayer:

Bally Freedom EM version, anyone got a high quality scan? I'd like to make a modified version.

YeOldPinPlayer did you ever find a Freedom scan? I was looking for one as well.

Mailing out my first pinball backglass in a trade tomorrow (Blackout for Seawitch and Flight2k for wall hangers). Using a recycled planetary pinball backglass shipping box with extra pool noodle padding on the edges. I figured a little sucking up to the delivery drivers couldn't hurt.

Wow that was quick

#414 3 years ago

I have tried bgresto and Mayfair glass both with no luck on that title. I need a good original for bgresto to do that one, and Mayfair does not have it.
So, if anyone has an original they could dig up it would be greatly appreciated (Eldorado city of gold, not Eldorado)

#415 3 years ago

Anyone out there have a Alien Poker backglass in nice shape? I'd prefer original but might consider a reproduction as well. I know Ministry did them, if anyone has one of those there willing to part with let me know.

John

#417 3 years ago

Looking for silk screened repro of a Jacks Open if anyone has one. I know Ron Webb made them, not sure if Shay has. Nice original would of course also be great.

This is what I'm starting with:

Standard flaking in reds that I'd like to improve upon.

Will write to BG Resto otherwise.

Saw that you posted on the stern page about trans lights. What are the odds you might have done a Space rider from Geiger? I also have a detailed picture of a original back glass, would you be interested in doing one up?

#424 3 years ago
Quoted from wolffcub:

Unfortunately, I've not done that one and to best do a recreation it takes a scan of an original, front and back.
Pictures help reconstruction of any missing artwork, but not accurate enough for spacing, placement, color matching etc.

He has already provided me with info on this some time ago, and i also purchased the play field and plastics from him. I thought reaching out might bring in other options.

Still sitting on superfluous Wild Fyre and Motordome translites. These have the simulated mirror effect and back masking layer and usually sell for $180 shipped to CONTUS, PM me with your offer.

I recently had a Pinsider reach out to me with scans from his backglass asking if I could make a translite. Here is the result.
I'll be submitting an order to my printer this week if anyone else is interested, let me know.

Are you having it reverse printed to glass? Or?
thx

#448 3 years ago
Quoted from izzy:

It is printed to a translite, a mask layer will then be applied. The only thing the customer will need to supply is glass or plexi to mount it to.

#449 3 years ago

ISO Centaur II, backglass or translite. I believe bgresto makes a glass, and pinballcenter in Germany offers a translite.

He answered me then never got back with what he has in stock... still waiting.
