About This Machine

The Triple-Up, produced by J. H. Keeney and Company Incorporated in 1962, is a payout "upright" — a gambling device, not a pinball machine — built for export to the British market, as confirmed by a 1962 Cash Box advertisement stating it was "Made for the British Market."

The game carries an archery theme, continuing a motif Keeney used on other export uprights of the period, and features a Panascope display like several of its sibling games. Details of its cabinet art and specific gameplay mechanics beyond the payout format are not well documented.

Little else is known about the Triple-Up's designer or production run, but it offers a window into the export-oriented payout-game business Keeney ran alongside its more familiar pinball line in the early 1960s.
