About This Machine

Liberty Bell, designed by Steve Kordek with artwork by Christian Marche, was manufactured by Williams Electronics starting May 14, 1976, celebrating American history for its Bicentennial-era release. It is a two-player electro-mechanical machine, with 3,000 units produced.

Liberty Bell features two flippers, two pop bumpers, two slingshots, four drop targets, three kick-out holes, and two spinning targets. Its upper-left lane includes a unique tilt rollover, and the game awards an end-of-ball bonus, with a maximum displayed score of 999,990 points per player.

The machine's American History theme, brought to life through Christian Marche's artwork, made it a fitting release for the United States' 200th anniversary year. Beyond its production figures and features, little further documentation survives about Liberty Bell's design process or market reception, but it remains a notable Williams EM release from the mid-1970s.
