    I think all of my games have had their original power plugs and cords replaced at some point before I owned them. This got me to wondering what the original manufacturers plugs and cords looked like through the years. I assume that they varied by manufacturer and era.

    Does anyone have info or photos on this topic?

    Here is the plug on my Gottlieb Dodge City. I would say this is typical of this era but not sure on its originality.

    I think that's an old style replacement plug rather than an original.
    You might want to change that cord and plug to 3 wire grounded.
