Loved those electromechanical arcade games! The game room at the Contemporary Resort Hotel had a whole room full of them back in the early 70's. And they were always a big hit at the carnivals during summer vacation, Ocean City Boardwalk had all these great classic E/M arcade games too. Thanks for showing them some love my friend!
I purchased a 1966 / 1 year older than your pitch and bat bullseye game / but being only 1 year off a lot of the stuff for how the game works, "seems," similar to what you explained, about the functions . No I don't get the middle ramp that raises temporarily ( wish I did) . I just brought mine home yesterday Dec 03 2022 Was told I'll have to get it working and for sure 1 bad coil. It's my first chicago coin game. Including gas I spent five hundred. Round trip,a little less than 400 miles. Now I got tv baseball chicago coin. Even if I "can't," get it working. I guess I'll get my fun out of it as a puzzle trying to figure it out.
Hello Do you rebuild machines for other people? I have a 67 Bootles Beat Time that will score wrong & just end a game out of know where. I have tried & so has the guy I bought it from with no luck. I would like to see what the cost would be to get it 100% working again. I do not wish to have the looks restored as we like the shape its in. Have a great day. Patrick

You gotta love the sound of an old em machine firing g up and resetting.
I saw one of these in Reno in 1980, pretty cool!
Wow nice. I think i actually played one of these or one similar to this in an amusement park near Roanoke VA called Lakeside Park.
