About This Machine

The Big Three pinball machine, manufactured by Mills Novelty Company in February 1941, is a single-player electro-mechanical (EM) game from late in Mills' pinball-manufacturing run, which spanned 1932 to 1942. Rather than an early example of Mills' output, it comes from near the end of the company's time producing pinball machines.

Few specific gameplay details are documented for Big Three, but as an EM machine of its era, it would have used electric relays and other electromechanical components typical of pinball design in the early 1940s to control scoring and playfield features.

Unfortunately, there is limited information available on the Big Three's design, art, or theme. Mills Novelty Company was known for producing pinball machines with distinctive artwork, but specific details about the Big Three remain largely undocumented, leaving it an intriguing subject for further research by pinball historians.
