1977 Gottlieb Strange World SAMPLE Machine For Sale.
I completely went through this machine by disassembling all of the major components.
The lower board relays were all cleaned, contacts polished and switches gapped. Score motor as well was disassembled and completely cleaned with switches as well.
The play field was stripped, cleaned, and waxed. All new plastics were installed. All lamp sockets were buffed clean. Pop bumpers and flippers were rebuilt. New switches installed.
Playfield has paint loss at the Special area, as well as the lamp area in the center as shown. The backglass has light flaking as shown. Cabinet has scratches, nicks, and dings here and there.
The backglass is the rare early version that is correct for Sample machines dated 1977.
Full production wasn’t until 1978.
The light box sockets were all buffed clean. Ball count unit, credit unit, score reels were all completely disassembled, cleaned, polished, and lubricated.
All coil sleeves were replaced and plungers polished throughout the machine.
New legs, levelers, and leg bolts.
Included is the original paperwork with the rare SAMPLE schematic.
