Dervacumen:
Stern made really short sticks.  They also had longer shaft version.  The short one was like really short.  I took this pic from Mike's Arcade:

lilshawn:
short sticks are often used in midway cocktail cabs.  :dunno

boardjunkie:
Midway had their own thing goin' on as far as joysticks go. They never used the Wico style...they had those big metal ones made for them by someone.....perhaps an early Happ product. Exidy used the same assembly on a couple games as well so it wasn't something Midway made in house.

Those Wico knockoffs with short sticks are normally found in cocktail games. They used those so the ball top wouldn't be too close to the glass. They were pretty common in the amusement supply catalogs (other than Wico, although they did make a short version for CT use).
