I'm not sure if anyone seen this - http://www.wired.com/rawfile/2011/05/king-of-pinball/
They call him the 'king of pinball'
was he one of the guys intervied in 'special when lit'?

Some nice photos that put my collection to shame.

Richard has helped me a couple of times in the past... namely to help make a reproduction of the "Stoner " logo. He is indeed a VERY VERY nice bloke and was great friend with Russ Jensen before he sadly died. Great to see a pic of Richard... till now i could only imagine what he looked like.
Rumour has it that he is donating a large part of his collection to Pacific Pinball Museum... he does after all have the largest collection of 30's games in the world.

Thanks for posting this!
