I think mostly people overlay the ticket with a decal?

its the only art work wear on the p/f
what makes it harder is that the ticket has specals through the paint, there is one way i am thinking of to repair it, scan it then buy some gold vinyl the same, then have the black art work printed on clear and stick that over the gold vinyl, then stick them to the playfield, (after removing the polish in that area)

if there is one available off the shelf let me know who sells them please
Fortunately the cliffies cover up the wear around the holes in the centre of the playfield

It depends on how long it takes to get the few bits & pieces i still need.

once it is fully shopped and all the new bits n' pieces fitted ($300 worth of parts going into it)
my Nephew wants $3000 for it so it will sit on ebay for a long time (with the ware on the p/f fixed of course)

Looking great Andrew.  Good to see a very thorough clean and shopout.
I really really miss my LAH.  !!!

Really FUN game and so under rated.  I will get another one day.
Lucky mine had virtually no wear on the ticket.  I remember seeing the decals too, but I cannot find them now.
MarkC did have a very nice playfield for a LAH a while back.  Not sure if he still has it though.
