    Default Help identifying playfield...

    Hey guys! with all of the people here with hundreds of machines, I was wondering if anyone had a machine with this playfield that has the part number on it? It's from a 1972 Nishijin, I think most of us have seen it a few times. Sometimes they just didn't print the numbers on the lower left. I am wondering if anyone has a machine where they did. Should be 47A- "Something" I am betting, probably A or B.

    Any help appreciated.

    PS: They almost always look this bad stripped down no matter how clean they look with the parts on them.

    I think it might have been in pink and that's why it's gone.

    It might be L-D, they did a few like that too back then.

    Might want to contact member Cardwwi.

    Pachinko Background Art

    Looks like it says 33WRC and it has a 45 just above that.

    I'd look on my machines but the ones that I own with that background are buried in deep.

    100 machines and counting...

    Thanks Max, but he signs all of his WRC. The 45 above it should be the designator, but I don't think that's original either. 45 would place it at 1970, which I doubt, and there is no associated series designator. Hopefully someone can pop their machine open and shine the light of certainty on it, otherwise I will have to let it ride as 47A-A and then change it someday if the truth comes out.

    I pulled up the original photos of art work and it looks like part of a A, the background came off a bowling machine. The date of 45 was from the decommission stamp but I don't think it is right.
