Our original Scan was of an NOS Backglass in Mint Condition and the Repro is within 98% accuracy ( keeping in mind that the Repro is a 9th Generation Copy).....

Generations =
1.) Original Painting
2.) Original Film Seperations
3.) Original Mesh Screens (for printing)
4.) Original Screen Printing
---------------------------------------------------
5.) New Cruse Scan of NOS Glass
6.) Photo Retouching to Color Correct & Remove Screen Printing Pixels
7.) New Film Seperations
8.) New Mesh Screen (for printing)
9.) New Screen Printing

That being said: This new repro looks pretty fricking good, for being a 9th Generation Copy.

If your looking for a "Perfect Match" then may I suggest buying an NOS Glass for $500+...but for the Money you can't beat this repro glass....

& the Repro is NOT Faded like 99% of the originals out there......

Here are some comparison images I took of a friends SS with the Original Glass & the Repro.....

Thanks guys, it's a slow process & we are making small art & production tweaks with every (cmyk) glass that we do in an effort to put out the best we can each time. Each glass gets better & better each time we do a new release....I can't wait to see the Taxi glass (should be out by the end of next week?).....

Looks like you have the wrong Backbox for this game....Yours looks like a Classic Bally shaped backbox instead of a Classic Williams.....

I don't believe that there were 2 different backboxes with 2 different artwork packages.....My best guess is that some Operator had a trashed backbox and replaced it with whatever they had laying around at the time (typical of Ops back then, anything to get it back up & running out on location to make money), and then altered the art to match the new shape of the wrong backbox....
