Bally SPACE TIME PINBALL MACHINE 1972 As SEEN ON HAPPY
DAYS!!!
Machine is in excellent condition there are no major
flaws, blemish's or wear on play
surface. The back glass is in really good condition
with only small paint chips here and
there. game has all new rubber and light bulbs. Every
screw on this machine is polished
& every surface is clean. The game worked but the reset
solenoid just went bad. The
play surface glass has a pretty long scratch in it (you
can't see it unless your looking for
it)The coin mechanism is intact and works. The outside
paint is ok with some scratch's
and dings here and there but is clean. And the right
flipper is not as attentive as it should
be. All it needs is a little tune up and you have
yourself a great showpiece with some
history.Winning bidder pays all shipping charges
(around $180-$200) I will try to get
best rate after auction ends.Here is some more

Yes there were three machines featured on Happy Days @ Arnold's: Nip-It being the most famous (and laving the longest presence until the episode where Arnold's burned down(if I remember correctly; I could be wrong)which was replaced with Space Time. The early episodes featured another pinball still (I think that one was Williams Klondike?). The sad part about the whole thing is that none of the three games were made during the 1950s-in fact Bally(the maker of Nip-It and Space Time) didn't make flipper pinballs much during the period choosing to make the more profitable bingo style pinballs instead.
