Seems to be an acknowledged top EM - never played one though.

One of the better 70's Gottliebs. Plenty of drop targets and a balanced layout. Definitely a fair base for a restoration.

Always wanted to restore one as a present for my Dads 60th birthday, he has played tennis most of his life.  Might be cutting it a little thin though, fitting in a restoration before the middle of April  !@#

Go on, take the challenge! I'll help any way I can and I bet there's a few other locals that would step up in an instant!

This is one great pin to play. It is far better than most EM's Ive played. Pins like Surfer,Bronko dont come close to this great game.
