Full description

Not a backglass: this is a rusty, weathered playfield photographed from above, in pastel pink, lilac, yellow and cream with vertical stripes. Four round cream pop bumper caps printed '10 PUNTOS' sit in the upper middle inside a looping yellow outline. At the top are four teardrop lanes with yellow circles and red posts. A cartoon blonde girl with pink bow sniffing a daisy fills the upper right corner, and a pink hand reaches from the upper left. Near the bottom are a blonde woman in a striped top and a grinning sailor with pipe, flanked by two orange triangular slingshots reading 'CRYSTAL' and 'BALL'. A grid of numbered 1 to 8 circles sits mid-playfield. Spanish text such as 'ESPECIAL', 'PUNTOS' and 'BOLA EN JUEGO' appears. Heavy rust and corrosion on the lower apron and edges.

Full description

A photo taken from the player's end at an angle of a brightly lit electro-mechanical playfield with pink-and-lilac vertical stripes and big yellow swooping bands. Four round white-and-green bumpers sit in a cluster at the top, three of them glowing. Below them is a hexagonal honeycomb of numbered 1 to 8 holes with white circles and four '100' circles. At the bottom of the playfield stand two cartoon figures: a blonde woman in a blue-and-white striped dress with hoop earrings, and a bearded sailor in a blue-and-white striped top and white sailor cap, holding a foaming mug and missing a tooth. Orange triangular slingshots read CRYSTAL on the left and BALL on the right. Two flippers, with FLIPPER printed on the left one. Small cartoon faces appear in the top corners and on side kickers. Spanish text on the lower left apron. Colours: pink, yellow, blue, orange.
