Sluggin' Champ

Sluggin' Champ is a single-player electromechanical machine from D. Gottlieb & Co., manufactured in April 1955. Records list a production run of roughly 950 units. The game is flipperless and uses mechanical reel displays for scoring, consistent with the amusement games Gottlieb produced in the mid-1950s.

With relays and stepper units handling its play, it reflects the design conventions of the era just before flippers became universal on Gottlieb tables. The record is drawn from the Pinside machine database and is not yet listed on the Internet Pinball Database, so details of its theme and gameplay remain scarce.
