Timothy T.
About This Machine
Timothy T. is a rare and intriguing electro-mechanical pinball machine from Costruzioni Elettroniche Automatiche (C.E.A.), an Italian manufacturer active during the late 1970s. As one of the few known examples of C.E.A.'s output, this machine holds significance in pinball history as a representative of the company's brief but notable presence on the global market.
In gameplay, Timothy T. features a Sports theme centered around horse racing, which was a popular motif during the 1970s. While specific details about its mechanics and rules are scarce, it's likely that this machine employs traditional EM pinball mechanics, including flippers, bumpers, and drain mechanisms. The fact that C.E.A. is an underrepresented manufacturer makes Timothy T. a valuable find for collectors and historians seeking to fill gaps in their knowledge.
The horse racing theme is visually represented through colorful artwork and decals adorning the playfield, which likely features iconic imagery from the era's horse racing world. Unfortunately, no information on the machine's designer or any notable design aspects has been uncovered. Nevertheless, the rarity and obscurity of Timothy T. make it an attractive target for enthusiasts interested in exploring lesser-known corners of pinball history.
