Gin Rummy

Photograph, taken from above and slightly to one side, of an old electro-mechanical playfield with a playing-card theme. The wooden-railed board is a pale cream and green with an orange-tan oval at the middle. A fanned poker hand of five cards with a spade ace stands at the centre of the oval, with three circular score discs reading 50, 100 and 200 beneath it and the words EXTRA SCORE arched above. Round numbered bumper-style caps, numbered 1 to 7 in green, white and yellow rings, are scattered over the upper half: 2 and 3 in green at the top, 4 and 5 in green and yellow rings, 6 and 7 in white. Playing cards with suit symbols (10, J, Q, K) sit in the bottom lane area above the flippers. A yellow-and-blue banner reads EXTRA SPECIAL WHEN LIT near the bottom. Two flippers sit at the bottom of the playfield, with four steel balls lined up in the trough below. Both sides carry 200,000 WIND-UP style text in small print. Condition: faded, slightly yellowed with age. Art is flat, simple, printed pastel graphics.

Square backglass built around a card game. Across the top a red band carries a white script 'million' on a dark red ribbon, beside a tiny clown figure and a second jester figure at top right. Curving ribbon banners in red, teal, yellow and black show scores 100,000 to 900,000 and the word million. The middle has a cursive yellow-and-black script title 'Gin Rummy' above a big red-and-black target of concentric circles on a teal green ground. Inside is a dark navy oval holding fifteen playing cards in a 5 by 3 grid: large numerals 1 to 10, two joker cards with jesters, then jack, queen and king face cards. Down the right side are black spade and heart shapes and red diamonds scoring 10 to 90 with small dotted numbers. Left edge has small black and red suit symbols. Bottom left a fanned hand of cards with an ace of spades, bottom right a score pad, pencil and a red-backed card.
