just got a united's bonus gun from 1955 ,previous owner said the cabinet was pretty rough ,graphics were very bad and painted over
he painted it over in original base color
i would like to try to reproduce the graphics on the cabinet ,i thought if someone had one and could take some pics i could try to have them printed and apply to cabinet or make stencils
what do you suggest
also typical story that it worked great when i played it before buying but after bringing it home the timer wont work ,it does reset though if i manually advance the timer reels and start a game
any ideas and thanks again

I dont know about the graphics, other than remove the new paint, and look at orig stuff, if its still there.
I am sure someone here has one, and can snap some pics for you.
for the timer, I would guess, it is dirty, and needs to be cleaned and lubed to work right again.
old grease and dirt gum up the mechanics
