This is an amazing example of a Blackwater 100. Hard to find a decent one, nearly impossible to find a home use example. I am the 3rd owner, purchased in the Chicagoland area almost 2 years ago. The 2nd owner believed he had owned it since the late 90's. He received it from a 'wealthy' Chicagoland friend (1st owner) who bought it new for his recreation room but wanted to change things around after several years.

When I bought it, the cabinet was dusty but in great condition. The playfield was dirty - likely never cleaned since new. Balls were tarnished but not rusty or pitted. It was a pleasurable and exciting experience to strip and clean the playfield seeing almost no wear anywhere and a clean under pf and interior cabinet. Hardware is in great condition, cabinet art pops with not even a slight fade. The original MDF cabinet is fantastic looking and clearly hasn't been moved much in its life.

After my shop-out, new balls, LEDs, etc... the game has been played about 200 times. You'll notice a little junk on the flipper rubber. I am happy to Novus the rings and playfield for the buyer. There is only little heat bubble where an incandescent lamp was under a ramp. This is the same location as 2 previous BW100's I've owned but far less pronounced. I removed Suzuki drop target stickers because they were falling off. These are available as reproductions if you want them.

I prefer to downsize and sell the game but would be interested in a high quality & clean trade for a WMS/Bally DMD game.
