Magic-Dixieland

Magic-Dixieland is a solid-state electronic (SS) bingo machine of unknown manufacturer, though some sources online attribute it to SIRMO or GAA -- no manufacturer name or logo has been found on any known example. As a bingo machine rather than a conventional pinball game, it uses a large field of trap holes (25 of them) and score-line-based scoring rather than flippers and targets, in the tradition of classic bingo pinball.

The design leans into a musical, road-trip aesthetic: the backglass features a picture of a trumpet, while the top of the playfield displays a classic car, and the cabinet is finished in wood grain. As a solid-state bingo machine, Magic-Dixieland represents a later-era continuation of the bingo genre after it had transitioned from electro-mechanical to electronic control.

Without a confirmed manufacturer or release date, much about Magic-Dixieland's history remains uncertain, but its combination of SS electronics with classic bingo-style trap-hole scoring makes it a notable curiosity for collectors of this specialized pinball sub-genre.
