Crazy Lane

The California Exhibit Company's 1935 Crazy Lane is an electro-mechanical (EM) single-player pinball machine produced in Los Angeles during pinball's formative years. Very little documentation survives about its specific playfield layout, artwork, or theme.

As with other EM machines of the mid-1930s, Crazy Lane would have relied on solenoids and relays to register scoring rather than the player-controlled flippers that wouldn't be introduced until the late 1940s; ball movement was governed by gravity, pins, and targets, with the player's influence limited to the launch and careful nudging of the cabinet.

Beyond its manufacturer, year, and single-player format, specifics about Crazy Lane's design remain largely undocumented, leaving much of its history open to speculation.
