S O U N D U N I T : BIG GAME’S exclusive sound unit— the unit that reproduces the sound effects— is built

built in Rock-Ola’s own woodworking plant and is finished in a cool, inviting shade of green, set-off by
natural wood moldings and center-spotted by a leaping tiger in colors. . . . The cabinet legs are extra
strong, and the extra large leveling adjusters are used.
