now thats an interesting thought. why not buy a cheap pin from the same era with a different name, then repaint it as a kiss pin and replace the playfield and back glass, then sell it for $10k or more. i wonder how much it would cost? if it cost you $5k and you could sell it for $10k it would be worth it.
Yep, the only unique thing you'll need is the light board behind the backglass. The rest can be bought new.
He does stress in this auction that the cabinet is original as in it still has matching numbers on the head and body.
