Gottlieb Show Boat Pinball Near Mintcabinet Restored 4/61, 1950 produced, 4 flippers at bottom fo playfield, score-to-beat card. Has been in my possession since 1985, in storage since 2000 and is in nice cosmetic shape. Cabinet has been repainted in 1998 using original gottlieb stencil reproductions frmo their chicago headquarters available to the public along with original computer-color matched paint right down to the gray specs within the off-white base color! The back glass had been professional screened-sealed with a very expensive and recommended non-poly urethane based pinball machine back glass resin in 1989 to prevent future paint flaking. Game comes complete with 4-steel legs.
This game was electro-mechanically overhauled in 1999 and has been in smoke-free, climate-controlled storage at 65-degrees year-round to this date. My machines were restored to arcade condition, meaning all home-play features (free play/no coin) have been removed, unit operates on coin play only, 'tilt' connected, restored to 1st state wherever possible, if machine had original tin coin box in cabinet, it still does. Some machines have original schematic, still affixed to back-glass/head's door using masking tape from factory. New out-of-box tempered scratch-free playfield glass. We generally prefer north american van lines, which moves a lot of priceless pinball machines these days. A generic charge is around $350, though the rate can vary depending on the destination. Crating or shrink-wrap affixing to a wooden pallet are 2-options or unit may be picked up ta a location in northeastern pennsylvania on a 24/7 basis.
