Southampton, MA
I'll be putting my Dirty Harry up for trade in the coming days. Color DMD, FF Speakers, Pinsound Board, GIOCD.
Looking for another WPC or Stern Pro + cash from my end.
Let me know if we can make a deal. Thanks

Quoted from radial_head:Levi, same designer.
I've always wondered about the validity of this story. There are a number of interviews/oral histories that mention that he got really sick, and I've always been curious if the car accident story was a cover up. I've never been able to find an obituary for him, or any death records.
My mind kind of put together this imaginary narrative that since he also designed Gilligan's Island (which was originally called "The Brain") which ended up being the first DMD game that the message "aids is real protect yourself" might have been an homage to him. All conjecture with very little fact here but always thought the discrepancies on his death were odd. Would love someone with knowledge one way or another to chime in.
All I was able to find earlier was this old rgp post that quotes Steve Ritchie:
" I miss Tony and think of him often. He was hit by a car in front of Oinkers, a bar where we hung out in 92-93??".

Um... Anyone looking for WPC DMDs?
