More than likely, you will find one - but it will be in the USA. No problems with that, except shipping will be expensive.


Start here - https://gottliebpin.com/products.html (https://gottliebpin.com/products.html)


Shay does not have them on the list - http://shayarcadegroup.com/backglasses/ (http://shayarcadegroup.com/backglasses/)


Ron Webb Does not have them - http://pinballglass.homestead.com/ (http://pinballglass.homestead.com/)


BIG Backglass supplier - https://mayfairamusement.com/product-category/backglasses/ (https://mayfairamusement.com/product-category/backglasses/)


I would check will all the above. Then if you want a different approach, you can try BGRESTO - but these are NOT silkscreened, rather a printed film stuck to a piece of glass. They are good for games that are missing backglasses, or if no supplier has an original, then this is your last option unless one pops up for sale privately.

Goo Luck ! With patience - you will find one.

A mate out Marnoo way had one but I am pretty sure he sold it, but he may be able to put you on to who bought it. You still here Doug? @Gemini2544

Also noticed that @Skywalker sold one on here roughly 4 years ago, again he may be able to put you onto who bought it.

And finally have you looked through the pinball owners list on here? Have a look and maybe message a member if they are listed as having one. Can't hurt to ask...

Good luck on your search, oh and I am referring to whole machines by the way. I think just a backglass will be difficult to find here.
