What to photograph
Capture the complete front, maker logos, model plates, rear cabinet, power labels, circuit boards, connectors, ball paths, trays, doors, key areas and any included transformer or controller. Photograph missing pieces as clearly as included ones.
Identification checks
- Photograph the front branding, rear labels and internal maker marks.
- Do not assume a current model name from decorative character art alone.
- Record voltage labels, connectors, boards and missing external equipment.
Buying and restoration context
A complete-looking face can conceal missing rear systems, improvised wiring, broken trays or absent keys. Compare the exact model and cabinet generation, then decide whether you are buying a display object, functioning home amusement machine or restoration project.
