3-D

The 3-D, manufactured by Williams Electronic Manufacturing Corporation in 1958, is a single-player electromechanical (EM) pinball machine. The manufacturer's original playfield drawings are signed by Harry Mabs, though the designer had previously been listed elsewhere as Harry Williams.

The 3-D's gameplay is characterized by its use of two flippers and three pop bumpers, providing players with a dynamic and challenging experience. Six kick-out holes and one gobble hole add variety to the gameplay, requiring precision and strategy from players to navigate the playfield successfully.

From an aesthetic standpoint, the 3-D's music-and-dance theme is reflected in artwork by George Molentin featuring dancers. Little else has been documented about this specific machine, suggesting its relatively unknown status among enthusiasts and collectors of vintage pinball machines. Despite this, the 3-D remains a piece of Williams' late-1950s EM output, offering a glimpse into the pinball designs of that period.
