Jiggilo

The Jiggilo, manufactured by Colonial Specialties Company of Chicago in 1932, is one of several obscure conversion games the company produced in the early 1930s. As a Pure Mechanical (PM) game, it predates the electromechanical era, and like other pin games of its time it had no flippers — those would not be introduced until 1947. Players of the era typically used a plunger and gravity to route the ball toward scoring targets.

Little is known about the Jiggilo's specific rules or objectives. It is listed in the Encyclopedia of Pinball as a conversion game, though no source specifies what game it converted; it may be that Colonial only produced replacement playfields, in which case this title likely corresponds to Ace Novelty's 1933 'Jiggilo'.

Given the Jiggilo's age and rarity, and the lack of surviving documentation of its design or art, it remains an obscure footnote in the crowded, copycat-prone Chicago pin-game market of the early 1930s.
