William’s Pinball Machines

Anyone that’s been around pinballs at all for any length of time is familiar with William’s pinball machines. They were one of the main pinball machine manufactures for 55 years, from their first machine called Zingo which was manufactured in 1944 to their last machine, Star Wars Episode One in 1999, they were always one of the most popular manufacturers of Pinball Machines.

I have a special place in my heart for William’s pinball machines. I’ve personally owned 3 for them myself, and some of my very favorite’s growing up were William’s pinball machines. The ones I owned were Gusher, High Speed (I still have this one), and Road Show. These were 3 very different machines from different eras.

Gusher

Gusher was made in 1958, when I was just 2 years old. It was a wood rail machine that my dad bought for me from a bar for $200. It’s worth much more than that now – that’s for sure! Gusher was the first William’s pinball machine to have a disappearing jet bumper. It was an extremely fun machine to play, and I had many, many hours of entertainment from it. One of the only problems I had with this machine was it had a big hole right in the middle of the field that was easy to drain the ball down, thereby losing your ball and possibly ending your game.

High Speed

High Speed is a great game, and you can find it pretty readily nowadays if you want to look around on . It has a flashing red light on top that comes on when you escape from the cops! High Speed 2 – The Getaway is a later model of this game, which is also lots of fun.

Road Show Red and Ted

Road Show

Road Show was a later machine that I had also. It has lots of ramps, tunnels, and holes, and also 2 talking heads, Red and Ted. At one point of the game you shoot the ball in Ted’s mouth and he swallows it! It’s pretty funny, and really a blast to play. This machine was manufactured in 1994, and is one of the newer types of William’s pinball machines.

Spanish Eyes

One of the older William’s pinball machines that I used to love to play was called Spanish Eyes. It was a very fast moving game for its time, and I spent a lot of time and money at a place called P. M. Jacoy’s in downtown Spokane, WA playing this game. I remember that like it was yesterday, but it was more than 35 years ago!
