Pinball Wizards Convention, 2K

Allentown, PA

Fri. May 5th - Sunday May. 7th, 2000

This year's show was better than last year. There were more games to play, and most importantly, MORE EM'S(electromechanicals). The deals were there, if you hung around long enough, inside and outside. I noticed that the EM pins with backglass and/or playfield animation went quick. Like that's a surprise. I literally walked away from a Williams 1967, "Kick Off" pin for about ten minutes so I could find the seller, came back, and the game was sold, doh! This was a cool pin. The backglass has an animated football grid. I think the asking price was about $425, but that wasn't firm, so somebody got a good deal.

I had some pics from inside the showroom, but Tripod unfortunately deleted them when they cut their free space from 50 MB to 20 MB. I did not own a cd burner back then, so the pics were never backed up.

Made it!

On the left, a rare Genco "Screwball" pin.

Last year there was a "Slick Chick" pin inside. Wonder how much this one went for?

This is either a cigarette or candy machine, from around the 30's or 40's, minus the mirror.

This is a rare 1977 Atari "Destroyer" videogame, similar to Midway's "Seawolf."

The classics were also for sale.

 

This pic was sent to me by another collector after the show. Wow, $50. Looks like it's missing a few parts though. This one must have gone quick. I never even noticed it.
