The late Gordon Morison did the artwork for this 1976 "Canada Dry" backglass, as well as many Gottlieb pins from 1971-1980.

Check out the Jurassic Park topper for sale.

Mayfair always has a good selection of boards for sale.

One of the oddest items at The York Show this year was this "kiddie Neo Geo."  Although it's built for a kid, this game accepts quarters, unlike the multi arcade stuff you see at department stores, with no coin door at all.

 

I found this at the West Manchester Mall, located at 1800 Loucks Road, just off Route 30 and before you get on Route 74 to the fairgrounds, just a couple miles away from the show.  I think it's behind Toys R Us and Ollie's Bargain Outlet.  For I think 50 cents, you get to see two Lionel train sets running.  Believe it or not, I found something similar to this in a Munves catalog for I think the year 1937.  

Got home Sunday night. Notice I covered Meteor's cabinet with my jacket and a blanket, so the sun wouldn't bleach the playfield while heading back home.

 

Another shot of my "new" pin.  

Notice I used the Kleenex vending machine to brace the head so it wouldn't rattle around too much during the drive home.  The extra cardboard I had in the van helped too.

Don't forget the shirt!

Here's a scan showing the cool front design.

Here's the back of the shirt.  By the way, you can check out the 2008 shirt HERE at the show's site.  See you at the show! Pingeek.
