Quoted from Jappie:

I have a nice scan of a Billboard advertisement for Genco's Four Roses from 1940 here.

Perhaps you know how to have a game's photo become the thumbnail icon for that game? I don't. I have posted several photos of prewar games to "image" section of each game. While those images successfully uploaded, the actual game's icon remains blank. The games involved are as follows:

Chicago Coin----Rapid Transit
Chicago Coin----Wing Lite
Genco-----Gridiron
Daval------Chicago Express
PAMCO----Major League (the later model, with revised apron, has a blank thumbnail). The earlier model, with the cast apron, does have a thumbnail photo/icon.

Good job, Jeff. The presence of a thumbnail photo somehow transforms the game from obscurity to reality. . .long overdue for these prewar gems, which planted the seeds of this hobby.

He asked for a little time to get some things straightened out. It still sits, waiting for its time to shine.

hello mods! I uploaded a bunch of pics on a few games, but here are some important ones:

Admiral: I uploaded a playfield image for the icon https://pinside.com/pinball/machine/admiral
Merry-Go-round: uploaded a playfield image that can be cropped for the icon to replace the current one that has prominent glare https://pinside.com/pinball/machine/merry-go-round-gottlieb/gallery
Bridge Ball: uploaded pics that can be used for the icon https://pinside.com/pinball/machine/bridgeball

thank you!!

--Jeff

#81 3 years ago

How about adding Genco's Cadillac? I've got some pictures in the Genco owners thread and would be happy to add a few more. Just not sure how to do so.
Thanks

I have a “six star“ playfield. Manufacturer unknown.

I don't think Ramegoom is selling, but if you really want one (or another prewar) send me a DM and I can keep a look out.
Ramegoom has added pics to the machine, if you can add a splash image.

Still looking for a older table top game, like a Log Cabin would be great.
Thanks,

well, I'm looking for a Log Cabin as well, but good luck to you and me and everyone else on that quest.
If you want a table-top game in general, there are tonnes available. That one specifically? Nope, not tonnes available.

Hi there!

@way2wyrd, could you add 1936's Bally Roundup? I have just acquired one.

I'll be sure to post detailed pictures on the machine's page once it's there.

Thanks a lot, Jeff! I've put some pictures there already.

Another request. Could you make a page for:
- Bally 1935 Prospector https://www.ipdb.org/machine.cgi?id=1872
- Bally 1936 Peerless Multiple https://www.ipdb.org/machine.cgi?id=1772

They share Roundup's dual payout system, which seems to have been quite the thing back in 1935-36.

Looks like I'll be picking up a project 1934 Daval Big Bertha Junior today. @way2wyrd, could you please add that to Pinside?
https://www.ipdb.org/machine.cgi?id=5383

And maybe also its big brother Big Bertha Senior?
https://www.ipdb.org/machine.cgi?id=233

Many thanks!!

Ok, however nice it might be to have pages for both Big Bertha's, I did not buy the one I went looking for. It was a big basket case and missing too many parts.
