Bradlees or Caldor?

[yuppicide]

Does anyone have any pictures from stores or magazine scans when places like Bradlees or Caldor used to sell full size pinball machines?

 

I got one for Christmas one year. Was bought at Caldor I believe. I think they knew it was a broken floor model perhaps. It broke within 5 minutes of playing it and they returned it and never got me another.

 

Wish I knew what it was. It had a rubberband like bumper the ball bounced off of and the ball got caught in that, I was racking up tons of points, then the machine just died.

No...but if you're significantly interested, you should be able to dig up something in your local newspaper archive. They usually archive everything to microfilm, including the circulars/coupon insterts/etc.

I hope they got you something else in place of it!

As I recall I didn't get anything else.. I mean I got other presents, but nothing to replace the pinball machine.

 

One year I guess my Aunt and Uncle were broke so they got me a magic hat. It wasn't really making things disappear.. they were fooling me, but about 30 minutes later the hat totally disappeared too.
