Play Girl
About This Machine
The Play Girl pinball machine, manufactured by Romagnoli of Italy in 1979, is a rare example of Italian solid-state electronic pinball with adult-themed artwork by Michele "Mike" Martinelli. As an Add-A-Ball machine rather than a replay game, it followed the format common to many European pinball designs of the era, where extra balls rather than free games served as the reward for good play.
Detailed information on Play Girl's specific playfield layout and feature set is not well documented, but its adult theme sets it apart as an unusual entry for the period - most pinball machines of the late 1970s stuck to more conventional themes like sports, fantasy, or space.
While little else is known about the Play Girl, its rarity and distinctive theme make it a notable piece among collectors interested in unusual European pinball of the late 1970s, and its artwork by Michele Martinelli is a defining feature of the machine.
