About This Machine

Oxford St. is a one-player pure mechanical pinball machine discovered in England, with a 'World Places' theme referencing Oxford Street, the well-known shopping thoroughfare in central London. Its manufacturer is unknown, but the game appears to be a well-executed name-change reskin of Genco's 1933 '42nd Street.'

The surviving example was found missing its legs, ball shooter assembly, front lockdown bar, and coin door, and measures 35 inches long, 16 inches wide, and 10 1/2 inches high.

Because so little documentation survives, details about Oxford St.'s original designer, exact production date, and distribution remain unknown. Its status as a reskinned import of an American design, rebranded for what was likely the British market, makes it an interesting example of how period pinball manufacturers repurposed existing games for new regions.
