ORIGINAL MARATHON MANUAL AND ENVELOPE ARRIVED TODAY
« on: May 03, 2010, 04:21:28 PM »
Well id forgot id even ordered it so i had a suprise package at work today.   
               During my search for a copy of a Picnic manual a guy replied to my mr pinball add who had an original Picnic manual so i asked the question how did you come by this he said he has a whole box full of old 50s and 60s manuals.    MMMMM  "do you have a manual for a 1955 Marathon?"    Got a reply yes and its still in its original envelope so i had grab that.   

         I know you can buy these new from PBR but how much cooler is it having a 55 year old shematic with a 55 year old machine.  Once i finally remember to bring it home from work ill take some photos. as its in really great condition so if anyone is after an original manual for there old 50\60s machine check out

www.montrealpinball.com   very friendly and great to deal with  ^^^   I said he should take a look at AP not sure if he did or not?  You there Robert????
