Barnacle Bills: Ortley Beach Legend..

<< < (4/4)

Howard_Casto:
Well not always. 

Example:  The older marquees were screen printed directly onto the plexi.  You can sometimes get an old marquee in good shape if the game is popular enough, but otherwise it's that inferior print of the graphics printed on that translate stuff wedged between some plexi.  The same goes for bezels, only worse because some bezels were originally glass.  For pinball machines, the art is often 50% of the cost of the table.  The older coin doors just aren't available new anymore, ect....

I guess putting it in other terms it's the difference between getting original parts for a car as opposed to reproduction parts. 

ArcadeDunce:
yeah, perhaps...maybe ican get them to give me the simpsons marquee. a new sign was posted 'no scrapping'...
I also noticed walking by today that the simpsons control panel somehow got knocked off and is now on the ground. dang :).
