Flying Scot

The Flying Scot is a rare pinball machine from 1939, manufactured by Genco Manufacturing Company of Chicago. This single-player electro-mechanical (EM) machine is a flipperless game, played entirely through plunging and nudging skill, in the style typical of pre-flipper era pinball.

The Flying Scot plays 5 balls per game and features eight spring bumpers, giving players a lively, unpredictable playfield as the ball ricochets through the game's travel-themed layout. Its reclined backbox design adds a distinctive aesthetic touch that sets it apart visually from many contemporaries.

The Flying Scot's Trains - Travel theme and artwork are representative of the early days of pinball. Little is known about the specific designer or notable events associated with this machine, but its rarity and flipperless-era design make it an interesting find for collectors and historians of vintage pinball.
