"Corinthian" 22 ½

The "Corinthian" 22 ½ is a pure mechanical bagatelle produced by Witzig's Limited of England. As a bagatelle, it predates the flipper era of pinball — players do not control the ball with flippers but instead launch it, likely via a plunger, into a fixed field of pins and scoring pockets, with gravity and angle determining the outcome rather than active ball control.

No production date, designer, or artist is documented for this game, and details of its exact scoring layout and cabinet artwork remain unrecorded.

As a simple, unadorned example of early mechanical bagatelle design, the "Corinthian" 22 ½ offers a glimpse into the amusement games that preceded modern pinball, reflecting the straightforward gravity-and-pin gameplay common to the format before electrification and flippers were introduced.
