Great news - these are a tough find as Gottlieb only used them on about 8 low production (around 500) games in the 1950s

Would of been tough to make them from scratch

Will take a photo of them if you want?

The top 2 are standard pinball bolts but the lower one (on mine anyway) is slightly shorter
