Title: Rare 1980 Bally Rolling Stones backglass art proof.
Post by: Pinballace on February 08, 2018, 01:26:51 PM
Greg Freres filled me in on this one.  May be the only one to exist.  We got this when we bought the Williams/Bally archives in 2009.  There's a few more rare pieces on offer in other listings.  All going towards our new project...yes that new project....and yes the first project is still a go...  &&

Some amazing history you have unearthed, James. The Centaur conceptual art is also interesting.

Should also mention that if Forum members buy any of these items, James is sending me stuff all the time. Can be thrown in one of RTBB's shipments.

And remember, this is all 'one of a kind' stuff
years ago I bought from him the engineering drawings of a B/W Circus ramp

It is taking you a l-o-n-g time to get through those filing cabinets :p

Would be great to have it framed - but it would have to be a long and expensive frame !
