Description

1935 Bally Sky High. Game is a flipperless design. Game play is 1 nickle 5 balls. It is designed to pay out upon landing balls in correct holes. The payout tray is a swing out semi hidden drawer in the lower left hand corner. All center holes except the double score in the center region pay out with one ball. They are worth 100, 150, 10, 200. The right and left side balls require you to land a ball in each hole across from each other to recieve payout. They are worth 20, 10, 50. The double score hole in the center does just that and doubles the payout. If all 5 balls are played without landing in any of the drop holes and make it to the bottom trap the machine is designed to payout 10. The payouts are in cents so 10 = 2 nickles and so forth. The machine was designed to be powered by a 6 volt dry cell battery.
