Bobby Ore Power Play Wall Art Restore

[ddstoys]

Here is another Playfield i recover from the rubbish heap

[ddstoys]

Stripped it and cleaned it as with all my playfields.  By the way all the parts were sold to a guy so they didnt go to waste as all these playfields were complete underneath

[ddstoys]

Came up really well with a polish it was missing plastics but i managed to find them. Actually a good story  one plastic i was visiting a friend who has pinballs and i walked into his office and what was sitting on his shelf?  One of the missing plastics he only had 2 for this machine and one was needed for mine what are the chances.  I then searched the pinball collectors register looking for an owner to get a scan and make a plastic the first bloke i got a reply from was from canada he had already scanned the plastic and attached it to the email.  But said if i wanted the real plastics he would send it to me for $5 postage im sure it cost him more than $5 to send it what a top Guy

Replaced the Mata Hari with this one as it was complete.

Where is this so called "rubbish dump" ?

I'd call it more of a "treasure Trove" !

Good work again, Daniel.

It was in oakley.  It was huge mainly arcade gameboards and stuff i scabbed most of the pinball parts said i needed them for the Machines id just bought they wouldnt let me take any more in the end must have realised it shouldnt be going to the tip.  There was a perfect guns n roses topper in the pile aswell but when i pulled it out hes said that shouldnt be in there GRRRRRRR

Great Stuff,  So some guy I assume amusement mob in Oakleigh was turfing all this stuff?  What an awsome find.  Looks great by the way

[ddstoys]

Yep sure was sadly he got tight in the end or id have had more lol

[ddstoys]

Well its finally finished thanks to Nick he wasnt sure about the stuff stuck to the top of the rollover but looks almost identical to the ones in the machine. (The reason the brand new ones looked crap)

I just found this article which says there are several mistakes on the Bobby Orr art.

Whether intentional or not, I wonder how many other errors are out there with pinball art?

Last time I checked, there are 3 members with Power Play in their collection.

I've seen games for sale on eBay that list pf's with heaps of wear listed as excellent. This pf would be classed as mint to those guys. Looks great mate

Thanks Rob
    Most of the Playfields hanging on my wall and roof are better than most you see for sale LOL   Have a few nice ones waiting to be screwed to the roof.     Still not sure if I'm going to hang onto my Nude CFTBL Playfield or hang that ????

Great game, probably a bit of an underrated game.  Being originally from Canada, this game of course is in the blood and in the collection.  Bobby Orr was a legend in the 1970's - what Don Bradman was to cricket, Orr was to hockey.

Very nice Daniel.  Now you just need to find some vintage skates to hang on the wall with it!
