Country Club

The Country Club pinball machine, manufactured by Western Equipment & Supply Company of Chicago in October 1936, is an early electro-mechanical (EM) game built around a golfing theme. Players received 10 balls for 5 cents, and the machine's cabinet was advertised at a compact 40 inches by 20 inches.

Gameplay on Country Club was likely straightforward, in keeping with the simple mechanisms typical of mid-1930s EM machines, well before the introduction of flippers and other later pinball innovations. The golfing theme would have been expressed through the game's title and basic period-appropriate graphics rather than elaborate artwork.

Little further documentation survives regarding Country Club's designer or additional notable features. It remains a representative example of Western Equipment & Supply Company's output during its brief run as a Chicago pinball manufacturer from 1934 to 1938.
