Miss America

Miss America, manufactured by D. Gottlieb & Company in February 1937, is an early electro-mechanical (EM) payout machine from Gottlieb's catalog.

Detailed information about Miss America's specific gameplay features, artwork, and theme has not survived or is not well documented. As a payout machine, it would have operated by awarding cash payouts to operators/players based on where the ball landed, in keeping with the payout machines common in this period.

Given the limited surviving documentation, Miss America's significance lies primarily in its age and rarity rather than any well-documented design innovation. It remains an interesting artifact for collectors and historians researching Gottlieb's early output and the payout-machine segment of 1930s pinball.
