For Sale: 1976 Gottlieb Bank Shot - SOLD

Post by JohnH »

Classic pool themed add-a-ball single player Wedgehead. Rescued from a non climate controlled Milwaukee attic.

Cabinet
Solid with straight shiny legs.
Good paint with the exception of the front of the back box, which could use some attention.
Nice coin door, from the outside. The inside of the coin door had been stripped of all hardware.
Has backbox door.

Playfield
Cleaned up pretty nice. Some light wear, mostly around the inserts.
New posts, flipper bats and rubber rings.
On small corner missing from one of the sling plastics.

Back Glass
Very presentable. There are a few nicks and the ink is thin in spots. Has been sealed.

There is some surface rust on the under playfield hardware but nothing that affects operation.

Plays as it should.

Asking $400. The game's at work where I won't be till Monday. If there's any interest I can post some pics at that time.

Located in Pewaukee just North of I-94.

Yes, I got it. Thanks for the reply.

I'll get some pics posted on Monday. The plan is to take it to the MGC but if it sells before then, I won't be heartbroken about not having to haul it down.

I do feel like I need another EM in my life. This was one of my favorites at Tom Taylor's the last time I was out there, so why not.

You can't go wrong... I havent played a billiards themed pinball machine I haven't liked yet. Billiards and cards seem to translate well into pinball.

Don't forget bowling as well.

I have a Bank Shot and you can't go wrong with it. It has that "one more time" appeal due to the nature of the rule set.

I thought mine looked nice...wow.

Great pick up Dave. The EMs are next to go up in value. Especially the wedgies.
