You might want to post pictures of the two playfields. There maybe someone out there that has one of these games with a playfield that is in worse shape then yours. This happened to me once. A guy I ran into told me in passing he was taking a few games to the dump the next day. I asked if I could come over and gets some part off his games before he headed to the dump. He agreed. When I arrived one of the playfield was 50% better then the one I had. I'd say it was a 8 out of 10. He thought it looked trashed. The game was a EM Evil Knievel. The other games where in bad shape but had a lot of great parts including good backglasses. This was in the late 80's when operators where cleaning out buildings to make room for some of the crappy video games the made in the early 80's. Good luck with your art project.

Its most common to clean them, light them, and hang them.
2 short alternating blinking Christmas light strands can be a quick and affordable way to light.

You are right, however the Playboy may have a chance with that new overlay system. I think they are called Hardtops. I'm sure they will make Playboy one day. They do have a post here on Pinside.
