Want me to email you the full size pics PM me?   Its something ive always wanted even before PInballs but way out of my price range.  The guy who delivers our milk Pisses me off as he found 3 of them in a shed years ago he pulled them apart to do them up then never did it and threw them in the bin grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Must admit I had a Penny machine simlar to these when I was a kid.  My Dad gave it to me as his old relative was in to machines.  I pulled it apart to do it up and never did.  When I moved out of mum and dads, dad was cleaning out the garage and through it on the hard rubbish  !!!  Also had a Gelati Ice Cram bike complete with the big bucket thingy all painted and connected to the original push bike.  This went to the hard rubbish as well !!!

I've been to the penny arcade in Echuca prob over 15 years ago, great setup with heaps of games to play and an old fortune teller machine from what I can remember, be interesting to see if they have a web site with all of thier games listed.

As i said earlier, assuming the place is still there, and full of machines, it might be a good "AP-day-trip-meet" some weekend whenever??

As a kid, we went on a holiday to South West Rocks on NSW north coast. These pics brought back memories of a machine in the general store where you put in a 2c coin, flicked a ball around a spiral, and depending in which slot it landed, you could get a pay out in 2c coins (I think i once got 5 x 2c coins when 10c was a princely sum)
Wanted: GTB Aquarius backglass. Any playfield bits and backglasses from any EMs - nothing is junk to me.

Yeah i was happy with the find but realised i really did have to much free time i remember sitting there when it arrived and piecing back the shattered section of glass so i could copy the picture lol.  The guy luckily put the broken section in a snaplock bag so when it smashed in the mail i didnt lose to many bits

Just looking a the top of glass at the "Tee Off" logo, that's what i remember the game as.
For some reason i never recalled "Par5", maybe the one i played wasn't labelled like your glass....

Anyway, Tee Off or Par5, it's def a rebuild waiting to happen here  %$%
