American Family!
MA SAYS:
" I think DITTO is a winner because it is so easy to play and understand.
You get the idea right away. And, besides, you certainly get your money's worth. You have
10 balls to shoot. You have running lights and pictures and fascinating action. In fact, every­
thing about DITTO is clever. I think DITTO is the most interesting game I have ever seen.
And it's lots of fun to p la y /7
PA SAYS:
" Y o u can make mine DITTO every time. It's the one game I really get a
kick out of. First of all, there are 1000 different ways to win a high score. And whoever built
the game sure knew their stuff. It's the easiest working machine I ever saw. A nd the game itself
is a corker. It takes hold of you and won't let go. DITTO is the table for me every time and
all the tim e /7
MILLIE SAYS:
" I think DITTO is an old smoothie. It works like a charm. And it's so
good looking. Did you notice the dashy cabinet? It reminds me of Tom's new streamlined
roadster. A nd the colors are exciting! DITTO is one game that has won me over com pletely/'
SPUD SAYS:
"B oy! O h Boy! Is it a game! Man, you should see the bunch down at the
corner. You'd think it was a fight the way they pile around it. Everybody wants to be next.
DITTO is plenty fast, but it looks like they'll need two more tables in there to satisfy everybody ! "
JENKINS SAYS
■ " lu s t fancy a game with 1000 ways to win a high score. My word,
I never dreamed it was possible. But you can figure it out for yourself. Look here: the moment
you insert a coin, bright lights fly back and forth over the top row of the light-up panel. There
are ten numbers. The light stops on one of them. That's the score you shoot for. The idea is for
you to get that score on the field, and do it with the most balls. It's a new game each time.
And 1000 ways to score. Gentlemen, let me lead you to the best of the best— D IT T O /'

DITTO is the result of real engineering. Maybe you
wouldn't call it a masterpiece, but, from a mechanical
angle, DITTO comes as close to being perfect as any­
thing you ever saw in this business. It's a clean job
through and through. Nothing complex or messy
about it. lust a simple hook-up of wires and lights. A
neat job of assembly. A nd that's all.
Identified by the Rock-Ola trademark, the finished
product of Rock-Ola workmanship, DITTO is an
extraordinarily fine machine. O ne that will do you
proud. A nd remember, DITTO is a 10 b a ll ta b le ,

sure of long life for your batteries.
