Majestic

The Majestic, manufactured by Bally in December 1935 (model 59), is an early electro-mechanical (EM) payout machine from the company's formative years. This period saw manufacturers experimenting with electromechanical scoring and payout hardware layered onto mechanical playfields, well before the 1947 invention of the flipper.

Gameplay on the Majestic would have relied on tilt, gravity, and target placement to direct the ball rather than flipper control, with a system of relays and electromagnets used to register scores or trigger payouts. Specific details about the Majestic's theme or artwork are not documented.

While little is known about the Majestic's designer or unique features, its age and status as one of Bally's mid-1930s payout machines make it a notable artifact from the early years of the company that would come to dominate pinball manufacturing.
