Repeater

Repeater, manufactured by J. H. Keeney and Company Incorporated in November 1940, is a Flipperless electro-mechanical (EM) pinball machine from a period when EM design was already well established in the United States.

Key gameplay features include 13 passive bumpers, a common and distinctive aspect of pre-flipper EM pinballs. These bumpers provided players with an opportunity to score points through simple collisions, contributing to the machine's straightforward, addictive nature. As a Flipperless design, all scoring came from ball movement and bumper contact rather than player-controlled flippers.

Unfortunately, little is known about the specific designer or any notable artistic themes associated with Repeater. Its plain, mechanical aesthetic was typical of pre-flipper EM pinballs, which often prioritized gameplay over elaborate art or design. Repeater remains a solid example of late-1930s/early-1940s Flipperless EM pinball.
