Sorry I didn't post this sooner, I just found the Wisconsin Pinball group.

I run a 501c3 non-profit that is having a "Rummage & Bake Sale" on this Saturday (7/9/16) in La Crosse.

I have donated my 1973 Gottlieb Pop A Card machine to the sale, and we're running it as a Silent Auction with a reserve.

Game is in great condition, includes schematic, replacement bulbs. All bulbs work, bumpers etc work great. Machine was purchased in 1995 and was mostly unused following purchase.
Playfield is in incredible shape.
Coin mechanism works, the only negative is the lock has been removed completely.
I'll try to get some photos and add them Friday.

This is one of 825 of these machines ever made. The last of Gottlieb's "short" flippers!
The clinks and bells sound like the heaven of old school arcades.
I hate to give it up, but the non-profit needs the funds. Someone is going to get a great addition to their man-cave.

I'll try to link a Facebook event page for our event on THIS Saturday. July 9 2016 in La Crosse.

Very cool! I'd guess you're in the Lacrosse area, but if you happen to be in the Madison area I have a new lock you can have to put on the machine - takes 2 minutes to put it on and I can show you how.

I hope you're able to raise some money!
