Title: Big Broadcast (1933)
Post by: arzoo on March 20, 2009, 01:29:57 pm
Just picked this up off craigslist for $200 - Big Broadcast (1933). The playfield and frame are original, not sure about the body - it's been repainted. Works really nicely!

Notice you are in PA. Ever been to The Old Sled Works? Seems like it is right up your alley.

I think the Sled Works is north of Harrisburg - never been there. There is an old penny arcade in St Peter's village PA. It's small, but has some very cool old games - mostly electro-mechanicals from the 60's.
