Old Chicago EM
« on: February 24, 2009, 11:38:56 PM »
My 1st ever pinball was a Playball way back when I was 12-that was in 1978 but my 2nd pinball around 1982 was Bally "Old Chicago" which I just loved and was my favorite EM and probally still is, it was also a 4 player so my friends and I had a ball. Anyone got one?? an Old Chicago that is.

Peter - I don't have on but they are floating around. I've had the chance to pick up one or two over the last 10 years, but they have appreciated in value. One of the very best Bally EMs along with Captain Fantastic and Fireball.

Yeah dad got mine from Golden West Amusements years ago, not sure what happened to it-when I bought my GORGAR many years ago the bloke also had a Old Chicago but I couldn't afford both and it was in real nice nic-bloody hell wish I'd put it on the credit card when I had the chance..Hows that both my favorite pins and I walked with only one..
