Gottlieb’s wonderful two player “Card Whiz”
one of the very best drop target, card themed pinball machines ever
made. Gottlieb has a long history of famous card themed pinball
machines dating back to the 1949 “Gin Rummy”, 1955 “Easy Aces”, 1957
“Ace High, 1960 “Spot a Card” 1963 “Sweet Hearts”, 1965 “Kings &
Queens” 1967 “King of Diamonds”, 1969 “Spin a Card”, 1970 Flip a
Card”, 1971 “Drop a Card” , 1974 “Top Card” culminating in this
the last card themed two player electromechanical pinball machine
from the premier manufacture of card themed pinball machines. The
end of an era as the next year pinball went digital and the sounds
of chimes and bells fell victim to sound boards and speech never to
return.
Only one quarter
of the production numbers of it’s 4 player twin “Royal Flush” this
“Card Whiz” features 9 new drop targets, one new pop bumper, one
kick out hole, a free ball gate, a count up bonus, specials and the
sound and feel of a restored vintage pinball machine. Nearly
flawless playfield a nice clean original cabinet and a really good
backglass makes this “Card Whiz” a good investment in fun for your
whole family. Pinrescue has trouble keeping nicely restored “Card”
themed pinball machines in stock and this Card Whiz is in beautiful
shape. Ready for your game room.
