★ NEW BALL TRAP IDEA - The m inute
a ball is shot into scoring 1 hole, it drops out
of sight . . . springs the trap autom atically
. . . and thus closes th at particular hole to
any further ball. The next ball is entirely
unobstructed by the Trap or pins surrounding
it. This idea in itself is a powerful play
stimulator, for the simple reason th a t it chal­
lenges the player to develop skill—not only
over a period of time—b u t during a single
game! E ach successful shot eliminates one hole
from the field, and thus makes the game that
m uch more a game of skill. This feature alone
insures a steady play for A IR W A Y merely as
an amusement machine — IN A N Y T E R R I­
TORY.
C A N Y O U BEAT IT ?
★ A N T I- T IL T IN G D E V IC E T H A T
NEVER FAILS
★ AUTOMATIC S C O R E R E C O R D E R
— Each ball th a t drops in a Trap travels under­
neath the playing field and operates an auto ­
m atic score recorder, flashing up the color
correspond in s to the color of the Trap. Names
of large cities and the numerical value of
each Trap are also autom atically recorded.
★ 3-WAY REWARD SYSTEM -By m e a n s
of the autom atic record described above, A I R ­
W A Y can be operated w ith any one or all of
th re e d iffe r e n t re w a rd - p a y in g s y s te m s — color
com bination—a combination of certain cities—
a straight num erical scoring.
★ MECHANICALLY PERFECT — The
autom atic mechanism of A IR W A Y has been
developed by Bally experts to the point of
perfection, and gives smooth, trouble-free per­
formance. Ball-Traps cannot be re-opened till
another coin is deposited, when they au to m ati­
cally open, and they cannot be jarred shut by
accident or otherwise. The autom atic score
recorder is positive in action, fool-proof, and
cheat-proof.
This latest Bally creation, standard equip­
m ent on A IR W A Y , insures easy, enjoyable play
and accurate shooting such as was never before
possible.
It alone places A IR W A Y in the
deluxe class.
★ BE AUTY THAT ATTRACTS
PLAYERS —You have to see A I R W A Y to a p ­
preciate its wonderful appearance— the beauty
of its satin-smooth black cabinet . . . richly
grained natural w alnut playing field . , .
polished nickel-plated fittings on both the cabi­
net and field (including nickel-plated pins) . . .
flashing silver airplanes . . .and the touch of
color on the Ball Traps . . . each a different
color . . . 10 colors in all. A I R W A Y is a real
beauty— the kind of machine players are n a tu ­
rally attracted to— the kind they really enjoy
playing by the hour!
