    The Museum of Pinball's collection is now 2200 games with about 750 pins. We have outgrown the current location and seeking a new location. A new location was found and planning began early 2021. A few months in to the project the OLD location was leased to a new company (the "pot" company that you mentioned). They are due to move in Quarter 4 of 2021. In the meantime the new location has proven challenging.

    To make things work at the new location (97,000 sqft in Palm Springs) we need a major sponsor or for someone to take on the responsibility (assets and liabilities), or find a new location, or find a storage building or sell (to a single collector or many collectors) most the collection.

    Thins are VERY complicated with many moving parts. Please think good thoughts. Stay tuned

    I just posted an update in a different forum about the Museum of Pinball auction.

    We do not have dates for the auction yet but I did provide some basic info and gave thanks to all who have ever visited the Museum and specially to those who volunteered to maintain the games.
