Some Bally pinball backglasses, pictures taken October 26, 2006 (unless noted otherwise)

For sale and pick up in Evanston, IL (north suburb of Chicago). FYI, I am about a 35 minute drive in regular traffic from Pinball Expo. I should be able to deliver to Chicago Pinball Expo. I can hold for Pinball Expo if full payment is made. Contact me to discuss.

All prices are "obro" (or best reasonable offer).

Note, these will not be for sale at Pinball Expo. I will only bring the specific backglasses to Expo where a firm deal has already been made.

Pictures were taken indoors under artificial light because it's dark outside already before I get home, without flash (in almost all cases) because of problems with the camera flash reflection, so the colors look dull and washed out. That is not the case, the colors are bright and non-faded.

I REALLY WANT NO PART OF SHIPPING A BACKGLASS!!! I'VE NEVER DONE IT, AND I DON'T WANT TO TRY. IF YOU REALLY WANT A GLASS SHIPPED, I WILL TAKE IT TO A COMMERICAL PACKER/SHIPPER (i.e., Mailboxes Etc.), WITH MANDATORY INSURANCE. If that sounds too unreasonable for you, get someone you know in the Chicago area to pick it up and have them ship it to you.

Higher preference given to anyone buying multiple glasses.

I can pack a glass wrapped in non-sticky clean white paper, sandwiched in cardboard.

I have tried to be as honest as I can with the descriptions and any flaws noted. If you have a different opinion, or note flaws that I didn't mention, let me know and I'll gladly update the web page as appropriate. I don't want surprises for either buyer or seller with any of the items.

Contact joemagiera@ameritech.net for any questions or other pictures desired.


Fireball $500.00. Yes, I know this is way high. I really don't want to sell it, but if someone "has to have it"...

Fireball front <---Fireball. Some minor flaking. Huh? How'd this one get in here? I want to keep this one! If you're really dying for a Fireball backglass, make me an offer I can't refuse!

Flip Flop $115.00

Flip Flop front <---Flip Flop. The brown stuff on the back at the bottom appears to be paper that got wet and stuck to the back. No attempt has been made to remove it. Unless you are looking really closely for it, it doesn't show through to the front. Otherwise, this looks to be excellent, I don't see other flaking, cracking, etc..

Six Million Dollar Man $115.00

Six Million Dollar Man front <---Six Millions Dollar Man. Very nice. Couple flakes along the bottom. A streak of something (paint?) in the middle, but doesn't show through to the front.
