Pinball at the Planetarium!

[Ryan Claytor]

Hi Michigan Pinball League,

A few weeks ago, I mentioned my latest book about pinball history I've been putting a lot of work into, which was just released this past weekend in Texas.  The Michigan State University book release is coming up in April.  Please see the event info below, perhaps even forward it to other interested parties, and I hope each of you will be able to attend.  Thanks for your consideration.

MSU Professor of Art and award-winning Comics Creator, Ryan Claytor, holds a book release presentation at Michigan State University's Abrams Planetarium for his new co-written series titled, Coin-Op Carnival.

The release takes place Sunday, April 14th, 2019 at 6pm as part of a North American book-signing tour:  

Admission to Abrams Planetarium for this event is free but seating is limited.  Please arrive early to ensure entrance.

Event Description:

Part historical gaming presentation, part immersive 360 video, part book release party, all fun.  Coin-Op Carnival, a new 64-page print publication, is the only source for full-color, completely illustrated content documenting the history and stories surrounding electro-mechanical coin-operated amusement devices (pinball and pre-video arcade games manufactured prior to 1978).  

Each issue includes an interview with a game designer, in-depth game reviews, E.M. tech explained, product spotlights, comics, and more. Every page of the publication features new full-color illustrations from Ryan Claytor, with articles written by both Claytor and Nick Baldridge, host of "For Amusement Only, the E.M. and Bingo Pinball Podcast", creator of the custom-built "Multi-Bingo" pinball machine, and seasoned tech.
