I've always had this fascination with vintage pinball machines and electronic games. They've always seemed like such incredible pop works of art with their sign painter qualities, lettering, and graphic appeal.

I recall spending hours of my youth at various mom and pop's beer joints, watching my father play these sorts of games.  I'd sit and watch from a nearby booth or a red padded bar stool, sipping numerous Coca-Colas through a paper straw, while he dropped quarters, rolls of them, one at a time, into the inviting works of art.
