AboutRodger Knutson Expertise I am an expert on old coin operated machines, slot machines, trade stimulator's, jukeboxes, old arcade machines, etc. I have been identifying these for people who respond to my web site listed below, for a few years now. In almost all cases I am able to tell them about their old coin operated machines, the year, the value, and other general information about their machines. I do not know much about soda vending machines, coin banks, or scales, but I will try to help you with these if I can.

Experience I bought my first slot machine, a .50 Cent Mills Black Cherry in 1969 and have been hooked from that time, I still have that Slot machine! Before that I found a open barrel full of old scraped jukebox wall boxes behind a restaurant, I wanted them all but never took a one of them. Anything that took a coin drove me nuts!
Question I have 2 differt pinball machines the man i bought them from called them bingo pinball machines!!
They have on the top of the backglass SHOOT A LINE
the one is a lot older then the other but i don't know dates
They are made by Bally
the one is older because it has a plunger type thing to get balls to come out!!
I am trying to find out how old they are and thier value
both are in good working order and good condition
the newer one has 5 balls and 25 holes ....the older one five balls and 28 holes
Answer Hi Rick,
Sounds like you cornered the market here on Shoot-A-Line's! Lets start with the early model:
Bally Shoot-A-Line made in 1962, 28 holes, 6 card, Value in 2007 guide is $275.00.
Bally Shoot-A-Line made in 1971, 25 holes, Kit (backglass) for stock Market, Value in 2007 guide is $225.00.
You are right in that these are both considered Bingo type games.
