Notes: | The replay version of this game is Gottlieb's 1971 'Drop-A-Card'. This was the last game manufactured by Gottlieb that used 2-inch flippers at the bottom of the playfield. After this game, Gottlieb used only longer flippers at the playfield bottom. Gottlieb continued to use small flippers on many games that had more than two flippers, and these smaller ones would be in the upper playfield. Their last game to use short flippers is Premier's 1995 'Shaq Attaq'. |
