This blog stands in protest against the USA's horrific attempts to eliminate trans people from society. Trans people have always existed, in every society, but the administration has embraced a moral panic, declared a war against reality, and says that trans people can no longer be allowed to exist. This includes making their healthcare illegal, censoring books and school curriculum from university level down to elementary school, declaring trans life to be child abuse, and banning trans people from bathrooms.

This blog stands in solidarity with all of the youth who are being terrorized by a fascist president who has declared them to be threats that must be eliminated.

The USA is disappearing random brown people off the streets via unidentified masked men and shipping them off to concentration camps and notorious foreign prisons, all with no due process. Solidarity for all who are in the gaze of this American Nazism terror campaign against its own citizens.

a post-war Carombolette table? Red-Ball by Hirsh Coin Machine Corp (1946)

Stumbled on this while browsing Coin Machine Review issues from 1946 and want to save it for any ongoing carombolette research.

• 33.5" wide x 8;7" long 
• They claim the game takes 1 min 25 seconds
• They say they "discovered" Red Ball just before the war, but I assure you these tables were many decades old by this time. 
• There is a ball return at the front, which most carombolette tables do not have.  If the balls are being released to the front, then there must be holes at the bagatelle back-end.  I wish we could see a photograph of the bagatelle playfield.
• There is a  unit attached to the end which I assume is a coin unit, but also might count score.  I am unable to discern, and there is no text the refers to its operation.

Scan: The Billboard 1931-12-19

At Ontario Pinfest I was gifted a box of old billboard magazines, from Mike Hanley of Church of the silver ball. They were fairly brittle and quite large, making them a formidable challenge, but a preservationist friend was able to take on this challenge and here is the first issue of that batch. This one is in 300 dpi, but the future ones will apparently be 600 DPI. thank you to F-T-BScans for the scan.

The Billboard December 19th 1931

 

I requested the final few pages of the magazine get rescanned at 600 dpi, and those pages are here. Those are the few coin-op pages, but this section of the magazine will quickly grow in later issues.

pachinko vinyl!

I've been chatting with Mr. Gneiss over at PachiTalk and they've been collecting pachinko vinyls and were able to digitize them and get them up on Internet Archive! Thank you for your work on these. There is a long tradition of using songs to open pachinko parlors (and other businesses.)  If you have other pachinko records, please get in touch.

1975 - 大瀬しのぶ (Shinobu Oose) - スットコ成金音頭 (Suttoko Narikin Ondo)

 the B-side on this 7" is a track called パチンコ天国 (Pachinko Heaven) which even has its own dance!
