Who Has This Baseball
Game?
Automatic World,
Fort Worth, Texas.
Dear Sirs
I am in need of some information
and believe that you can give this
to me.
Could you give me the address of
where I can get some of those auto-
matic baseball games and also where
I can get the one that is known as
the "Flash" game. This last one
flashes a certain color light when a
certain ball goes in a certain pocket.
As I understand it, both games are
well known in the East and South.
I want to tell you that I look
forward to each issue of your very
interesting magazine. To tell the
truth, I could not get along with-
out it.
Once before you mentioned in
your magazine that I was hunting
the good spots in Oregon. At that
time you mis-spelled my last name.
At the present time I have out over
100 machines and still hunting spots
and finding them because I have
about 25 different kinds of machines
and therefore it is not hard to get
a new machine in .
I would appreciate it very much
if you can give me this information.
