Would have been funny if they had engraved that higher up UNDER the front edge of the lockdown bar so you would never know the key number UNTIL you found the key and unlocked it.
Maybe that's not an operator note.
Maybe that's a phone number that someone REALLY did not want to forget.
Meh, that's not too bad, all things considered.
What's worse is when operators don't maintain their machines and they fall apart at the seams.

This was a Solar Fire at The Pinball Gallery in Downingtown PA. The owner takes really good care of the machines, so I'm positive this was carved by a previous operator, probably back in the 80's.
