Goodwill Ginza, 1952... Looks pretty nice!

It's back up: http://www.shopgoodwill.com/auctions...-20644652.html

Currently bid is $185 but the reserve still has not been met.

Is this actually from 1952/53 and is it a single ball conversion?

Thanks,

It isn't a true single shot conversion. This machine was actually built like a normal model B with an upper tray. Though at one time it does look like it had a manual ball lifter installed (3 holes at the bottom of front).

However, these models were only built from 51 to 53 (I think) and then got outlawed for a period of time and returned around 65 (I think).
