Full description

A rectangular 1950s-style electro-mechanical backglass on a warm sand/tan background, framed by a red-painted cabinet edge visible at the top and left. Across the very top sits a red banner carrying five round medallions: pale yellow, orange, white with red TILT, orange, pale yellow. Centre-left is a large dark navy, slightly skewed rectangular plaque lettered GENCO'S in white slanted script capitals, holding three small white windows reading 5 0 0, and beneath it the huge number 400 in thick cream-yellow block numerals with a red drop shadow. Three cartoon women in swimwear surround the plaque: at left a red-haired woman in a navy two-piece bathing suit and long white gloves, striding right with one arm raised holding a silver serving tray with a cup; in the centre a blonde woman in a gold bikini reclining on a white curved sled-like prop, one hand lifted; at right a blonde woman in a red-and-yellow bathing suit tipping a white top hat with blue stripes on her head and holding a thin cue-like stick. A cream scroll band beneath carries the digits 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 in red, flanked by EXTRA on the left scroll end and BALLS on the right. The lower third holds two banks of six orange-red reel strips and six blue reel strips, each numbered 1 2 3 4 5 6 in white circles, with payout values - - 3 7 12 20 beneath, over a plain yellow field. Art style is flat airbrushed cartoon line work with heavy black outlines.
