That is an intersting article.

What we be REALLY interesting would be someone contacting Leisure and Allied Industries, owner Malcom Steinberg whom founded this company in 1958, and hearing the history.  Wonder if he has any Arcade photos from the 60s, 70s and 80s in AUSTRALIA.  They also made Stern machines under licence back then, would like photos of the ass factory etc...

He must have heaps of info and photos from this era, you would think??
