World Fair

World Fair, manufactured by D. Gottlieb & Company in April 1964, is a charming example of Gottlieb's electromechanical (EM) output during the mid-1960s, designed by Wayne Neyens with artwork by Roy Parker. Its carnival and world's fair theme captures the sense of wonder and spectacle associated with such events.

Key gameplay features include two flippers, five pop bumpers, four passive bumpers, and two slingshots. The playfield's unique "Spin-Disc" mechanism lets players spin a disc on the backglass to land on one of 11 numbered cars, adding an element of chance to the game. The maximum displayed score is 1,999 points, with an end-of-ball bonus of 30 points plus a spin of the Spin-Disc.

World Fair's design leans into bright, cheerful colors and whimsical illustrations evoking a classic fairground. Its sound is limited to two bells and a knocker, typical of the era. With 4,650 units produced, it remains an accessible and appealing piece for collectors of vintage Gottlieb machines.
