1976 Shiroi Kamome. What have I got here??
Hello! Brand new to this forum, but not new to Pachinko! I have owned one for over 40 years! (Still have my original.)
Recently I dusted off my 3 Pachinkos and decided to do some research on them. Pachinko Planet helped me a lot.
One of my machines is a 1976 Nishijin Shiroi-Kamome. It has an interesting center feature that I have been unable to identify or find any pictures of one like it.
To me, it looks like Bill Cosby's character, Fat Albert. Features a chubby black male face with a huge, gaping open mouth. Inside the mouth are 5 musical notes mounted on springs that bounce around as balls pass through.
So what have I got here? Anything rare or valuable? Pachinko Planet says that these 1976 machines are uncommon in the U.S. and the only ones I have seen feature the Montreal Olympics center feature...
Any info would be greatly appreciated.
