eBay Watch - Williams "Smart Set" Pinball (1969)

A massive array of titles were produced by the several large pinball manufacturers in the 60s and 70s, and here is one now! This is Smart Set, released on June 12th, 1969 says the astonishingly rich ipdb reference site. I like this machine because it's close to me geographically, moderately priced (though sort of on the high side) and a great example of a Williams 4-player tropical theme game with classic Christian Marche artwork. Better yet, it even works! Yes, buying a pinball machine is a big material commitment given the difficulty of moving it and the space it takes in the home to set up, but with winter coming it's worth a little focus on indoor recreation! Not to mention all the skills you'll have to develop to keep it running.


This same seller has also posted a delightful video game themed Heathcliff lunchbox - I simply had to feature it as well!
