Monte Carlo

Monte Carlo, manufactured by Rock-ola Manufacturing Corporation in September 1936, is a single-player, one-ball payout machine equipped with mechanical backbox animation. It cost 5 cents per ball and ran on five batteries, reflecting typical payout-machine mechanics of the mid-1930s. The game could also be equipped with a "Rock-O-Pak" add-on for an extra $5.

Detailed information about Monte Carlo's playfield layout, scoring rules, and artist credits has not survived, which is common for payout machines of this era — many were seized or destroyed under anti-gambling laws in the decades that followed. Still, its battery-powered mechanical animation and payout design mark it as a representative example of Rock-ola's electro-mechanical output during the company's brief run as a pinball manufacturer (1932-1938).
