The thought crossed my mind today. What was it like to buy/sell, repair, or share ideas about pinball before the internet? I'm 35, so most of my adult life has revolved around computers or the internet in some way shape or form. It would be interesting to hear how things were done back in the day, Circa 70's, 80's, early 90's before Pinside and other forums. I am so thankful for Pinside and the community here, and what a wonderful tool it has been to get information on the hobby. Anyway, any old-schoolers out there who can enlighten, I would love to here some stories.
Thanks,
Floyd
