Notes: | The blue 'Gottlieb' pennant in the upper left corner of the backglass is silkscreened to be illuminated from behind. However, the factory did not install a lamp in that area of the backbox insert nor did they drill a hole for one. Pictured here is a Sample game with serial number 1032 S and located in France. On the playfield, the arrow pointing to the left center target is white and with white numbers on blue circles. Production games have a blue arrow with blue numbers on white circles. The backglass shows twelve girls. We note that the song "Calendar Girl" sung by Neil Sedaka reached #4 on the US Billboard chart in 1961. This game is not to be confused with Keeney's 1947 'Cover Girl'. |
