Miss Liberty
About This Machine
Miss Liberty, manufactured by Rock-ola in February 1936, is a single-player electro-mechanical (EM) pinball machine from the mid-1930s. Specific details about its playfield, artwork, and theme are not well documented.
As an EM machine of its era, Miss Liberty's mechanism would have relied on electromagnets, solenoids, and relays to register scoring, with balls directed by gravity, pins, and targets across the playfield -- a design approach that predates the player-controlled flippers introduced to pinball more than a decade later.
While specific design or artistic details are not well-documented, Rock-ola's production during this period often featured the era's characteristic mechanical ingenuity, and Miss Liberty stands as an example of the company's early pinball output.
