My mind raced when I first saw this post up on my local board. Coin Craft Canada? A CANADIAN MADE pinball machine from the pre-war days? There were other Canadian companies that had dabbled, but this seemed like a serious contender.
After a quick analysis, my hope was quickly dashed. This wasn't exactly a Canadian made pinball, but what was it exactly? In this post I want to dive into my research into Coin Craft Canada and the machine One Two Three.
Here's what we do know: One-Two-Three aka "One Two Three" aka "1-2-3" was advertised for sale in late 1935 by Peo, a company out of New York that had been involved in trade stimulators, and had a few interesting forays into the pinball market.
