Before the advent of arcade games and home consoles, pinball was king, with these table top versions being extremely popular among kids in the mid-20th century. The focus on this lot, offered here is this collection of 6 table top sized bagatelle pinball style games hailing from the 1940s and 1950s with five of the six present made by Northwestern Products Co. of St. Louis, Missouri while the other is made by Lindstrom Tool & Toy Co. Measuring between 9 1/2" x 15 1/4" and 13 1/4" x 23 1/4" Four of the five made by Northwestern are wood bordered and coved with glass with beautiful art over the playing surfaces. Displaying moderate wear all the games could benefit from a good cleaning. One of them is still contained in it's original box that is in admirable condition and still includes the original instructions sheet. The other two games, made of a metal construction and missing their glass covers over the front are also missing the balls on the inside and are no longer operational while the other four are. An excellent collection of vintage games that would make amazing display pieces in your collection.
Please note, it cannot be guaranteed that the games included in the lot are complete and as such are being sold "AS IS" and are ineligible for return.
