Quartette
About This Machine
The Quartette, designed by Wayne Neyens and manufactured by Gottlieb in February 1952, is a single-player electro-mechanical pinball machine with a dancing/happiness theme. With 1,450 confirmed units produced, it remains an appealing example of early-1950s Gottlieb design.
Gameplay on the Quartette is built around its four flippers, four pop bumpers, four trap holes, and two rollover buttons, offering a varied and engaging layout for the era. The maximum displayed point score of 4,990,000 points adds an element of excitement and challenge for players aiming to achieve a high score.
The Quartette's artwork, by Roy Parker, reflects its dancing theme, fitting for a game built around happiness and celebration. While detailed records of the machine's broader reception have not survived, the Quartette stands as a solid representative of Gottlieb's early-1950s output.
