About This Machine
The Trinidad, manufactured by Chicago Coin Machine Manufacturing Company in March 1948, is an electro-mechanical (EM) pinball machine designed by Jerry Koci with artwork by Roy Parker, reflecting the World Places theme.
The Trinidad plays with five balls per game. Its two flippers allow players to control the balls' trajectory and direction, while 11 passive bumpers provide additional challenges and obstacles. Four kick-out holes are strategically placed to direct balls toward specific areas of the playfield, adding complexity to gameplay.
The machine's World Places theme is reflected in its artwork and design. With 2,100 confirmed units produced, Trinidad represents a typical production run for a late-1940s EM machine from Chicago Coin.
