Harvest Time

Harvest Time, manufactured by Genco of Chicago in 1950, is a single-player electro-mechanical game from pinball's early flipper era. Production began on August 21, 1950 and ran through November 21, 1950, with 1,110 units confirmed built — and Genco's own records show 38 units still in inventory as of late October that year, a rare surviving glimpse into a manufacturer's ledger.

Gameplay is straightforward in the style of the period: players control the ball with two flippers, contend with a single pop bumper, and aim for three kick-out holes scattered across the playfield, each offering scoring opportunities and an element of unpredictability as the ball is kicked back into play.

The game carries a Native American theme, common subject matter for amusement machines of the period. As a compact, well-documented Genco title from 1950, Harvest Time is an interesting piece for collectors exploring the first years of flipper pinball.
