About This Machine

The Three Deuces, designed by Harry Mabs (per the manufacturer's playfield drawing, though earlier records had credited Harry Williams) and produced by Williams Manufacturing Company in 1955, is a playing-card themed electro-mechanical pinball machine.

The design includes three pop bumpers, two slingshots, and two standup targets, along with a gobble hole that adds an element of risk as players try to avoid it while maximizing their score.

The Three Deuces features artwork by George Molentin reminiscent of classic poker designs, in keeping with its playing card theme. It remains a solid example of mid-1950s Williams design.
