what is your favorite backglass, that depicts sexy busty babes?

my favorites are: ( by gordon morison )
pro football
jumping jack ( whoch has 7 or 8 sweet busty girls on the back glass )
king kool
jungle or wild life

not only were they great playing games, but they were all part of the
pinball lure
of the early 70's for a 12 year old boy to fantisize about ! of course
i now own these
machines today, and every time i go into my arcade room to play them,
those old
thoughts of boy hood come back. it's kind of cool that you can have a
little of your
past with double meanings ( the wife has noticed the girls on the back
glass ) but
she doesn't really know the real meaning behind ( not pun intended )
them !

are there any more machines that have sexy back glasses ? i don't
think they can top
my list !

I vote for Genie. I have never had the pleasure of playing jumping
jack but I agree thats one nice backglass.

Excellent selections.
The chick on the back of Top Score is nice, but not quite the same as
the bevy of babes in Jumping Jack.
Check out this page for a little fun with this:

i did remember playing genie, but i did not remember the the back
glass
was so good ! it is still a gordon morison back glass ! 1979 though,
i was
20 years old back then and i wasn't playing pinball too much then, was
in college
and the sight of real babes every day in class was much better than the
back glass
of a pinball.

guess what, billb says that is hogwash. Fixing the price of a good requires
knowing the prices of all the inputs. And, prices of inputs are not

That would be Duncan Brown. He had it posted on his web site at one point.
He did a couple of these sorts of things. I have them archived at home.

I always enjoyed looking at Gottlieb Countdown in my younger years.

We'll I've never owned a Countdown Pinball.....but I do now own the
backglass. I just need to find the time to hang it on the wall.

Yeah, they would. Sorry 'bout that. Fixed it so that they're correct now.

Roughly counting, I was amazed that I own 40 of the 210 games shown
on the Duncan Brown Backglass Mosaic.

Check out the bevy of beauties taking care of ol' Paul on GTB's Paul
Bunyan backglass :) (see on my web page)
Let's not forget Zaccaria had some great art too, including the swim
suit beauties on Pinball Champ :) (same as above)

How about Stern's "Mammary Lane" (pun intended), and Bally's "Future Bra"?
