1973
Gottlieb's "High Hand". Popular "Card themed" pinball machine with 16
drop targets in mechanically restored condition. Restoration just
completed beginning of June 2021. The most drop targets (16 drop
targets) on any big flipper game to challenge your pinball skill.
Super difficult hole shot for specials or bonus. The favorite pinball
machine of many players. A perfect complement if you have a Royal
Flush, Jacks Open, Drop a Card, Top Card, Joker Poker or any of the
Gottlieb "Card themed" pinball machines. "High Hand" plays the same as
when it was new.

Pinrescue has real trouble getting quality Gottlieb drop target games
on our webpage most sell before we get to list them. First High Hand
we have been able to list on our webpage in nearly 4 years! We at
Pinrescue are lucky to have any machines on our webpage sales during
covid when thru the roof.
Nice original art glass with few issues super nice original playfield
and solid original cabinet that had a so-so looking paint job. Clean
as can be inside and out see our clear pictures below.
The year High Hand rolled out of the Gottlieb factory 1973, Doyle
Brunson finished 11th place and Thomas "Amarillo Slim" Preston
finished 12th in the World Series of Poker. Interesting to note that
only 13 players ponyed up the $10,000 entrance fee and the eventual
winner Walter "Puggy" Pearson won $130,000 winner take all. Second
place won zero dollars.
Quality restored vintage pinball machines are a fun investment you and
your family can enjoy every day. Muscle Cars from this era are
bringing 6 figures when done right. Pinball machines may follow suit
as the demand is booming (read Baby Boomers) and the supply of good
working restored games is limited. Just where did the cool guys drive
those Corvette's, Camaro's and Mustang's to back in 1970's? Straight
to the local 7/11, Soda Shop, mall or bowling alley to play "High
Hand".
