... from classics like Wizard and The Addams Family

Laughed when I saw those mentioned as classics, but on 2nd thought, I guess they are. My pinball days were early 60s to around 1970. All 2 flipper games and slower than games in the 70s and onward.

Recently on a beach vacation, stopped in an arcade to kill time where pinwall machines lined every wall back in the day. Only found 2 pinball machines, was disappointing..:(

Had a "Quick Draw" machine(Gottlieb) in my basement for years that I sold for a thousand to a guy that drove 500 miles to pick it up, he refurbished it and sold it for $1500. Thing was, all the values I saw for it well under $1000, thinking the guy was hired by someone that wanted that machine badly enough to overpay for it.

What about the Lawrence Welk pinball machine?
