QUESTION: hi i was just given my dads 1961 Gottlieb egghead pinball machine i was wonering if you new how much they go for now a days im not looking to sell just to see if its worth restoring

ANSWER: Hi Jerry,

WOW, what a nice gift! Your new Gottlieb Egg Head Pinball Machine has an average value of $1,000.00. Production started in December of 1961, it's a one player game in which they produced 2,100 of these units in the run. The trend value for this machine has increased about 100.00 in the last year, so it's a good one to hang on to Jerry.

Thank You
