Title: 1978 Bally Pinball Height can someone measure one?
Post by: jbshocks on March 04, 2012, 03:15:14 PM
I need to know the installed height of a the old Bally pinballs.  Like 1977- 1983 solid state type.  I am trying to determine if I have space for my playboy machine before I move all the pieces and put it back together.

From sales flyers of the period, average height was 69.5 inches. I must assume that is with the leg levelers turned all the way out.

cool  thanks.  Where I want to put it I only have 73 inches.  I didn't want to get all the way into assembly and not be able to fit.
