Lot 690: 1934 Genco Official Baseball Coin-Operated Game
ITEM DESCRIPTION
|
||||||||||||
Notes: 10 x 37 x 19’’ wood coin operated game made by Genco. Originally marketed as the “Home Run Smash Game that is Going to Start the Biggest Money-Making Play in Coin Machine History.” The original cost back in 1934 was a whopping $35. Similar to the Rockola game of the same era, however the quality of this piece is far superior. The graphics are amazing with illustrations of a pitcher, catcher and a baseball diamond. Metal figural batters also decorate the surface.
Condition: All original with four original wood legs. The graphics are bright and the game shows only very light use. Appears to work fine.
