Hey guys, Im working on Bally's Bow and arrow table, wondered if any one had any descent pics of the plastics- the best I could find were off the promotional leaflet. I'm doing a total redraw but better pics would be great - Cheers

I have a playfield pic if you want it. I'm currently stalled in production due to real life.

[have you made it to the backglass yet? That one is really bogging me down.]

Im about 60 % done on the playfield and haven't started on the backglass.I think I'll be alright with the backglass redraw,but it's these plastics that I can't get good copies of,thanks Greywolf - platinum.

I download them, to be sure.

Franklin Gothic
Futura
Helvetica
News Gothic
Trade Gothic

No font collection is complete without those five font families if you're doing 70s era pinballs.

Hey Platinum,
I just picked up a Bow and Arrow and one of the plastic pieces will need to be remade. Wanted to know if you were successful in remaking your plastics. Regards,
Tim
