Long Beach

The Long Beach, manufactured by Williams Manufacturing Company in 1952 (model 75), is an electro-mechanical bingo-style pinball machine from a period when Williams was a major producer of such games. Bingo machines like this one used multiple scoring cards and trap holes rather than flippers, appealing to operators running payout-style locations.

The machine boasts 25 trap holes and three cards, features characteristic of bingo pinball design of the era. The inclusion of multiple cards adds an element of strategy, as players must navigate the game's layout in an attempt to complete winning card patterns.

While the Long Beach lacks a specific theme and its designer remains unknown, its mechanical design reflects the bingo-machine genre that was popular with operators in the 1950s, making it an interesting addition to any serious pinball collection.
