Far-West

Far-West, manufactured by Salor, S.A. of Barcelona, Spain in 1962, is a single-player electromechanical pinball machine with a Western theme. It represents one of the relatively few pinball machines produced by Spanish manufacturers in the early 1960s, reflecting pinball's spread to European markets outside the dominant U.S. and Italian makers of the era.

One distinctive design detail noted on Far-West is its backbox: while the box itself is rectangular, the frame surrounding the backglass flares outward on each side, giving the machine a distinctive silhouette compared to more conventional cabinet designs of the period.

Little further documentation survives about Far-West's designer, specific gameplay features, or production numbers. Its Western theme and Spanish origin nonetheless make it an interesting, lesser-known piece of pinball history from outside the more heavily documented American and Italian markets of the 1960s.
