Title: 1961 Gottlieb Showboat Post by: keithm on August 06, 2009, 08:38:59 pm Our church is having a rummage sale and this pinball machine is for sale. Sign says make an offer. It lights up, seems to play fine, except for one flipper , and looks pretty clean overall. Anyone out there have any thoughts on value ? Or have a price guide of some sort that they can look it up.
Thanks keith Title: Re: 1961 Gottlieb Showboat Post by: bubba on August 07, 2009, 05:11:17 am I just looked on Mr. Pinball classifieds, and there are 2 for sale both in good shape for $700-$750. Not sure if this link will work, but...

I'd offer $250.00 and see what happens.It does have the "wedgehead" design and Roy Parker artwork which is a plus for value and does ad to the overall appeal of the game. The condition of the backglass will give it higher value. Look it over closely. Good luck.
