Thanks for the list SugarCaddy.

Some of these old pinball machines are truly gorgeous, and like you I have a desire to own a few (dozen), but have no space. Backglass collecting is getting popular, and not too hard to do: a lot of old machines are beat and worthless, but the backglass is still in good shape.

Just two days ago, I saw a minty-mint 1960s Indian Chief (native American theme) pinball machine at an auction. No one wanted it. It went for only $60, and I didn't bid simply because I have no space for it (and no way to get it to my 3rd floor walk-up!). It was a real shame watching that bargain go by.
