The Hunter

The Hunter was manufactured by Games, Incorporated of Chicago in November 1955. It is not a pinball machine — it is an "electronic upright," also known as a "flasher type" slot machine, that does not pay out cash but instead increments a credit meter for continued play. It is a single-player game that could be operated with or without coins, and it carries a hunting theme.

Its cabinet was advertised at 62 inches high, 22 inches wide, and 14 inches deep. Games, Incorporated announced The Hunter in Cash Box magazine in November 1955. The company later produced a related game called Bug-A-Boo, believed to be an alternate conversion backglass offered for this same cabinet.

Details about The Hunter's designer and specific artwork are not documented, but it stands as a recorded example of the electronic upright category that Games, Incorporated specialized in during the mid-1950s.
