Re: Two Unidentified Backglass's



I know of a Keeney payout form 1938(?) that has 7 horses across the top. It says Handicapper on it though so you wouldn't be guessing what it is if that was the one :)

Hi, I bought 10 older backglasses from someone in the Midwest and have
identified 8 of them. The two that I can't identify are as below
(quick description):

1) Boxing match with a 'caucasian' guy K.O.ing a 'black' guy. "Fouls"
are noted in the upper corners of the backglass (presume to indicate a
Tilt), and rounds are counted along the top.

2) Horse Race game with pictures of seven famous horses across the top.
Smaller glass, am guessing this one to not be a pinball game, but
something else.

Any help in identifying would be appreciated. I dug through "The
Internet Pinball Machine Database" and found all the others, but no
luck on these two.

For those interested, the other backglasses were:
Rio: United
Turf King: Bally
Tampico: United
Cabana: United
Universe: Gottlieb
K.C. Jones: Gottlieb
Golden Wheel: unknown, 1937
The Winner: Universal (?)

Glass in fair condition. More for mounting than swapping to better an
existing machine.
