This is an 1993 alvin g. Pistol poker pinball macine in awesome condition! Only 200 of this model were made! It plays great and is in working order. All of the bells, sounds and lights work.
This machine plays music, and when you get the ball in certain holes it allows you to play a poker game on the top screen! It includes it original manual as well.
Some scratches and worn off paint in areas but nothing major. Let me know if you need any additional pictures and i will take them upon request. Feel free to call me anytime at 386 846 3886 if you have questions.




The following is an overview of the games condition issues and history. There is a crease on the playing field. The crease is in the top section by the boxer in the red/white shorts with blue gloves and the #3.
The back glass has a few minor scraths, but is not faded. There is no rear wooden cover. The game has not been played in 15 years. Before play stopped, the game worked fine. The game has always been stored in a climate controled environment. It was only moved over by the washer and dryer for the photographs. The wiring and electrical components are 100% original and have not been tinkered with by any idiots. There is no corrosion or other issues with the wiring or electrial components. The red plastic gottlieb ball cover part is broken. A plastic knob on the lower front plunger is missing. Got this following overview information from an internet site. 1950 gottllieb knock out pinball. Description: knock out, gottlieb, 12/50, 3000 produced, 2 kick-out holes, mechanical animation on the playfield of two boxers and a referee, woodrail pinball. If a knockout is scored, one of the boxers goes down, the referee counts him down, and then the box comes back out. Gottlieb knockout boxing type mechanical animation pinball. Gottlieb knock out game can win a replay by completing (operator selectible) number of knock outs (10 to 13 knockouts). Hit the center standup target for a knockout. Hit the left standup to unlight the 1-3 bumpers. Hit the right standup to unlight the 3-6 bumpers. Or just hit the individual bumpers (does not have to be in order) to unlight the bumper. Get all 1 to 6 bumpers unlit, and the knockout counter increments one. Getting 10 knockouts awards a replay and lights the side rollover lanes for a replay.
Putting the ball once over the outside rollovers increments the corresponding lower yellow static bumper from 10,000 to 100,000 points. This also increments the kickout hole values from 50,000 to 200,000 to 500,000 points. Gottlieb knock out has a safety gate between the flippers.
This comes up as the ball rolls over the switch at the top of the shooter lane. Stays up for several point hits before retracting. When the safety games goes down, the center rollover lights for a knockout.




Pinball machine or just the pinball glass. This machine is not in working order but seems to be mostly there. Noticeably missing is top glass that covers play area, cover for the back electronics and one piece of trim to the right side of score glass. Noticable damage is a split piece of trim to the right side easy repair and the tops of the little bumper islands shown in pictures.




Rare antique rifle game - 1956 united pirate gun. Is this thing cool looking or what! The cabinet / paint is in remarkably great condition for something 53 years old! The backglass is prettly flaky, but not too bad.
This is a real rifle - just look at the following pictures… There is a crack in the stock of this rifle. But as this is a real remington, you could replace it. The cabinet artwork is amazingly intact… Even on the painted coin door!
Look at that original price sticker. And notice the button made of bakelite! Despite the flaking of the glass, it still looks pretty good - very legible. Heres what it looks like when you first look in.. Notice the pirate in the back - hes on the left. Now hes on the right - this is a moving target and it works perfectly. Notice all the targets that are down - i shot those down with the gun - they work!!!! Original back door with original lock/key (i think). The bottom door is actually missing - sorry!
Ill cut one if you want. Looks pretty good and clean for 53 years old! These are the ball ramps… At least it gives you specs.
Look at that coin door! Original lock/key, paint, coin slot/return! Original cash box / lid. This is the underside of the gun. The recoil assembly needs to be re-attached.
Please feel free to call me anytime about this or any other game i have listed: 309-287-1725. Get your family christmas or chanukah shopping done for 2009 in one shot! If you can’t afford the full price of this game, use my. Wow, this is a neat game.
I can’t believe i stumbled upon this gem in an operators warehouse last month. I mean everything else he had was newer but then just tucked in with everything else was this 53 year old rarity. It’s even close to working.
I thought long and hard about whether i should take the time to restore it or just sell it as-is. I decided to sell it as-is, because i already have literally over 500 project games - i don’t need another one. But i do believe this game is restorable and i have a good idea of what it needs. First, let me tell you what works.
I know why this is and will tell you in a minute. So if you walk behind the machine after the score is reset and manually reset the game over relay (just by touching it) so that it is in the off position, the game starts playing. That is, the lights all light up, the moving target starts to move back and forth, and the timer starts to count up. Then you can go around to the front and take aim and start shooting targets.
The biggest issue, and the reason it doesn’t fully start, is that the step-up unit that counts shots needs repair. It looks to be all there and in good shape except that the step up wheel has broken free from the rest of the unit. All you need to do is pull this thing out and either super-glue it or spot weld it and you will be back in business.
So the game currently does not count shots. This is why the game won’t fully start, because i’m sure part of the starting process is to reset the shot counter to zero - and if that doesn’t happen, the game over relay won’t reset.
I promise you that this is no big deal and you can fix it. Another minor problem is that the score bell has broken off of the mounting bracket. It also need to be spot welded back in place (or replaced with another one). This also is no big deal. Once you get the actual bell mounted back in there, it will ring when the score increments. Another minor problem is that the recoil assembly is not attached that is a big high-powered coil that mounts to the shaft that holds the rifle. This coil energizes every time you pull the trigger, causing a magnetic field that pulls the steel shaft into the coil and has the effect of jerking the gun back.
This is to simulate the recoil you feel on a gun. Of course, since this gun is a 22 caliber (a real remington - look at the pictures), there shouldn’t be any recoil anyway so this is not essential to the game play. But it is cool so i would put this part back together if i were you. I can see that the coil is there and attached electrically.
And the shaft and mounting assembly is there. I don’t see the coil stop, but it may be in there. Even if not, this could be found or fashioned pretty easily. The last problem i observed is that there are no balls installed.
Apparently, there are supposed to be balls (or a t sure), which rolls down a couple of ramps and then is carried back up to roll again. I didn’t have the ball(s) so i don’t know exactly what effect this is supposed to have. I don’t know if you’re supposed to be able to shoot the balls or if they are just a distraction or what. But the ramps and the belt / motor that lift them back up are all there and intact. There may be some adjustment/cleaning/lubrication needed once you get the ball(s) in there - i don’t know.
But i don’t think it’s anything to be concerned about. It probably works as most other parts of the game do.
Physically, this thing isn’t too bad! Especially considering it was built in 1956. The cabinet is surprisingly solid, even though it doesn’t have one of the back doors. I will cut one for you if you want (plywood).
The art on the cabinet is mostly intact. The nice natural wood top and backglass surround is in very nice condition and really makes this thing look like a piece of american craftmanship. Even the price sticker on the front is mostly intact and still quite legible. The coin door is original and still has the original paint. The backglass is flaking pretty badly. It looks like someone tried to stop the flaking by attaching a thin sheet of plexiglass to the back of it. This seems to have worked fairly well.
Too bad they didn’t do it 10 years earlier. The gun stock is cracked but could easily be glued or you could probably replace it with one off a real rifle. The rifle has markings on it showing that it is a real remington 22 caliber rifle! Is that cool or what! The internal guts are in remarkably nice condition and i think would be able to be restored completely.
You can e pick this up in. I get a substantial discount with them, and so far they have delivered most of my games quickly and without damage.
Anywhere in the country, although i have seen it go higher in remote areas of oregon and washington, plus about $65 if you want it delivered to your home. I can also work with north american van lines, if you prefer to use them. Their rates are almost always quite a bit higher, but they do remove the need for palletizing and they will deliver to your residence for no extra charge. So in some cases, it may be a good deal to use them.
Games closer to 200lbs (plus pallet) are considered relatively light, and games over 300lbs are considered heavy. For this item, which will include the pallet, then rolling the game with cardboard, then covering it with stretch-film, then strapping it to the pallet, and finally covering it with “fragile” stickers.
My games are wrapped extremely well… I hate doing so, but it is required by my state government as i operate this company as a legitimate business. I’m “collecting” it for them (and i won’t be held responsible for how poorly they use it). No, i don’t pocket the goes to the state. If you pick this game up at my shop, i guarantee that it will be.
When you pick it up. I do not guarantee that it will meet your expectations… Ask if you have specific expectations that are not addressed above. I will then only give you my promise that it was as described when it left my shop. Once it’s out hands, i can not be responsible for any changes to its condition.
I never intentionally hide anything. So please ask me if something is very important to you and i didn’t mention it in my description - let’s be safe rather than sorry. Approximate size: 70 x 28 x 36 inches (177.8 x 71.1 x 91.4 cm). Approximate weight: 250 pounds (113.6 kg) not including box or packing material. If you have any questions about this item, please. You will then be notified and can complete the invoice at .




Here we have a very rare 1978 gottlieb ” joker poker” pinball machine.. Playfield and backglass in great shape for a machine over 30 years old. Cabinet in good shape as well. Has some normal wear as usual.
Needs a couple of new bulbs and the flippers adjusted as they stick every once in a while. But other than these minor issues its a great machine… Being offered here with no reserve.. We will accept cash when picked up.
Its a very rare old machine and a great addition to any game room. We reserve the right to end this auctio early as it is for sale locally. Weve had several questions about this machine. We do not have any of the books that go with it sorry..
We are happy to answer any questions but cannot speak to what exact condition this machine is in as we are in no means qualified to judge or rate conditions of pinball machines. We only state that it looks good to us and it plays fine. We played it for 45 minutes just today game after game and it played fine. It is over 30 years old and im sure it has some problems but i honestly do not know of any that are not stated.. The machine is not perfect as it has some cosmetic flaws as im sure most machines this old do.

First, let me tell you what works. Then i’ll tell you what i observed that needs repair. A lot of things fact the tough things work.
First, when you press the start button, it actually pops up all the targets and starts to reset the score and time counter. If you hit it a couple times, it will get the score reset. It does not trip the game over relay to allow the game to start. I know why this is and will tell you in a minute.
So if you walk behind the machine after the score is reset and manually reset the game over relay (just by touching it) so that it is in the off position, the game starts playing. That is, the lights all light up, the moving target starts to move back and forth, and the timer starts to count up. Then you can go around to the front and take aim and start shooting targets. The gun actually works - all the targets will drop with the exception of two (and i may just not have aimed right at them).
The biggest issue, and the reason it doesn’t fully start, is that the step-up unit that counts shots needs repair. It looks to be all there and in good shape except that the step up wheel has broken free from the rest of the unit. All you need to do is pull this thing out and either super-glue it or spot weld it and you will be back in business. So the game currently does not count shots.

Please note that you can click on the images for larger versions of each photo. For more information (but not much) about this particular game title.

What a nice box that is a piece of pinball history. Add the factory finish and excellent original cosmetics and you have a very rare piece. Note the backglass is pretty nice with only a small bit starting to let go. The playfield is really nice with very little wear. We have not tried to plug it in as it has not been used in a long time.
The pride of ownership shows! Best of all, there is no reserve. We will let the market determine the value on this rare piece.
This example would make a great addition to anyone’s rec room, bar room, media room, or arcade. We have used eric’s blanket wrapped service and north american van lines in the past with great success. We will hold it for 30 days if you plan to pick it up (it needs to be picked up in 30 days - no exceptions on this).
Discover why our experience, reputation, and education makes the sell it now storeĀ®. Creating the right environment to maximize value includes. Access to global niche markets for specialty items.
Item valuation and online research. High quality digital photography in our state-of-the art studio. Convenient location for item drop-off. Secured and insured storage facilities. Turn-key corporate training and liquidation services.




Playfield has been given a once over cleaning and wax. Most lights have been replaced, logic boards all working, displays strong and bright. 95% of solenoids working (left flipper not firing). Left flipper should be a very easy fix for someone more familiar. Logic boards in head are original clean and untouched!
Meaning it needs new rubbers, left flipper repaired, and plastics cleaned. Game works great other than the flipper not working and will make a collector very happy! Its for sale with no reserve! Will let the community determine its value!





This is the rare, unique and very desireable head to head pinball produced by williams. Only 402 production games were released in 1983. Game is fully working, great playing game. I have taken large pictures to show the condition.
