Big Ben

A full-view colour photograph of an electro-mechanical playfield shot from above, with the chrome ball-guide rails framing a printed centre panel. The artwork is a London/Big Ben theme in a comic-book airbrushed style: broad radiating wedges of orange, red, amber and pale blue fan out from a dark clock-face motif at the top, over a faded tan background. Four separate printed character portraits set into the plastic lanes: at top right a red-haired young man in a green patterned jacket reaching forward; at mid left a seated woman in a green hat and green top reading a book beside a man in a brown hat; at lower left a woman with swept green hair and hoop earrings; at lower right a woman in a wide-brimmed straw hat with orange hair working at a board covered in charts. A horizontal drop-target bank of ten round targets sits mid-field beneath a row of values 1000 3000 5000 7000 9000, with BONUS in big red outlined block letters and DOUBLE in navy. Red plastic star-shaped bumpers, four lit red lamps in a row under a green ADVANCE banner, two chrome dome pop bumpers with 100 inserts, two red-tipped wire ramps, and two red flippers on chrome legs fill the hardware. The lower apron carries a black 'BIG BEN' title, INSTRUCTIONS card and 5 BALLS PER GAME card.

Rectangular backglass with a London street scene. The background is a bold yellow-and-orange sunburst of wide rays radiating from a central point, with a large stylised rendering of a tall gothic clock tower (Big Ben) at centre-right, complete with green roof, gold finial and a blue-and-white clock face. Black wrought-iron railings and hanging chains run along the pavement in the mid-ground, with a domed gothic building and a wall lamp on the left. Across the top left hangs a rectangular score window in a grey and black frame, showing six white number reels reading 2 8 8 1 0 0, with a small green 'Sega' logo beneath and the title below that: BIG BEN in large pink-purple bubble letters with white and black outlines on a dark teal speckled panel. In the centre foreground stands a man in a white shirt and dark grey trousers, legs apart, holding a camera up to his face. To his left, four fashionably dressed figures (women in bright green, yellow and pink outfits with tall hats) pose on the pavement. To his right, a woman in a vivid pink and turquoise striped costume with a wide hat and pink boots walks past carrying a bag, and further right a man in a brown jacket and hat leans near the railings. A large pale blue domed form with an orange band sits in the lower right corner. Along the bottom left edge is black instruction text on a cream panel.

Tall portrait-format backglass with a pale cream wooden-looking outer frame and a thin cream border. The upper two thirds is a flat olive-yellow night sky with faint pale diagonal light rays and small orange glow dots. A large shield-shaped banner fills the upper left: five mechanical score reels in cream windows read '30520' on a black panel, below which sits a cream cursive script logo reading 'Williams' with a circled W, and beneath that the title 'BIG BEN' in huge red serif letters with darker red shading and a pale outline on a blue-grey lined field. Ornate black wrought-iron scrollwork runs along the top left and down the left edge. On the right, a tall gothic clock tower with a blue spire, gold-trimmed clock face and dark blue-black shaft rises above the Houses of Parliament. Across the bottom a bridge walkway with black ornate iron railings carries six figures: at left a woman in an orange bodice and green check trousers, a man in a bright green double-breasted coat, red scarf and peaked cap, and a woman in an orange sweater and red trousers; centre a man in a tan jacket and dark green striped trousers holding binoculars to his eyes; right of him a woman in a green-and-white striped flapper dress with a pink feather boa and green headpiece, and at far right a woman in a green polka-dot dress and hat holding a fan. Bottom left reads 'BALLS TO PLAY' in black block capitals; bottom right a blue-green cloud carries orange 'GAME OVER' and pale 'TILT'.
