Bowl-A-Line

Bowl-A-Line, manufactured by Genco Manufacturing Company beginning in September 1950, is not a pinball machine but a bowling-themed game that trade publications of the era, including Billboard, identified as a shuffle alley. Genco's documentation sometimes mixed it in with pinball listings, but a handwritten list compiled by designer Steve Kordek separated it out with other 1950 non-pinball titles.

Genco produced 99 confirmed units between September and late November 1950, with three still remaining in inventory as of late October that year.

Little further detail survives about Bowl-A-Line's specific gameplay mechanics or artwork, but its modest production run and bowling theme place it among the wave of shuffle-alley and bowling-style amusements Genco explored in 1950.
