Travel Round The World

Travel Round The World was manufactured by the Peo Manufacturing Corporation of Rochester, New York, in June 1935. It's a single-player electro-mechanical machine built around a travel and transportation theme, notable for its mechanical backbox animation.

The playfield features 15 trap holes and a single kicker, and the machine is powered by batteries housed in a front slide-out cradle rather than relying on a wall outlet - a practical design choice typical of mid-1930s coin-operated machines. Its backglass is similar to Peo's 1935 title 'All American Football,' though it omits the manufacturer's name.

Little further documentation survives about Travel Round The World's specific rules or artwork beyond its globe-and-travel theme, but its mechanical backbox animation and battery-powered design make it a notable example of Peo's mid-1930s output.
