1960's Marudi New Prince Pachinko Game - $50 northeast Yuba City

[JACKSJE4]

Looks like a very clean and well cared for single ball machine.

Classic Pachinko machine. 21" x 32" Marudi brand, New Prince model. Purchased in Japan in 1969. Plexiglass replacing origin broken glass to keep dust out--all else as it was 40+ years ago. A bargain compared with what's on Ebay.

Pachinko Game

Boy, does that look familiar. Takes me back to 1971 (?) My first pachinko was a Maruda New Prince. But with pink and baby blue motif. Also, the center gadget was different. The back was identical, with that crazy blue-green plastic window and stapled orange plastic ball paths.

I have one nearly identical to that one!New Prince 004.jpgNew Prince 003.jpg Great single ball machine! Can't remember what I paid (more than $50), but that looks like a very good deal for anyone near! The mechanism can be a little finicky, but seems pretty reliable once functioning properly. More pics here: New Prince Has Arrived! , in case anyone is interested in the one for sale (not mine), and wants to know more about how the unusual mechanism works. Many cast aluminum parts...very sturdy mechanism. Classic overkill! I love it!
