I was lucky enough to get shown around the restoration workshop of Giacomo Malvermi, where he has done some amazing work in a Star Jet, a Sitting Pretty, a Genco Fun-Fair and an EM Mata Hari.

If you interested you can see some pictures of this EM treasure trove at http://pavlovpinball.com/em-dawn-the-rebirth-of-cool/

That Star Jet is simply jaw dropping. These guys have the best job in the world and their smiles tell the story.

Great read, thanks for link. That Sing Along looks so good close up. That is one title I completely forgot about over the years. I played it once as a youngster, that close up just triggered my memory. Art is amazing.
If you don't remember the 70s then you were on drugs.
If you remember playing pinball in the 70s you were having a good time.
If you don't remember anything,  then read about it here,

The title of the story is very wrong!
E.M.'s were always cool  (). If you don't have at least one on your collection, you are truly missing out.
If it isn't broke, it isn't pinball.

I agree too, even though i have sold all but two of my EMs  @.@  Would never have sold any of them if i didn't need the $$ @ the time
Will be replacing at least one of them soon enough though  *%*

Great story .

I saw and played a Star Jet for the 1st time at the Barn meet in 2012 (oe was it 2011?). Would love to own one just for the fantastic artwork alone.
I need more room ! and more $$$
