Hi Mike,  You can help out the pinball hobby out by forwarding your pic of your keen ball to: jay@ipdb.org    Jay runs the internet pinball database(ipdb.org).  In your email tell him you took the photo and give permission to use it.  This will really help out as they don't have a photo of your game yet!   Thanks.  Larry
