A solid-state-era electro-mechanical playfield under a clear glass, photographed with the whole cabinet visible, front apron and black cabinet side panels with oversized white card-suit spades and a red heart visible below.

Full description

Illuminated backglass with a black night-sky background scattered with tiny white stars, gold starbursts and orange exploding firework sprays, plus thin arcing gold light trails sweeping up from the lower corners and a broad red ribbon-like curve. The centre is dominated by a tall cream-coloured playing-card panel outlined by a red eight-sided, stop-sign style border. Inside it stands a painted pin-up playing-card queen, the letter Q printed in dark red at the card's upper left with a small drawn diamond suit symbol beneath it. She is a young adult woman with voluminous curly red hair, pale skin, red lipstick and heavy eye make-up, wearing a low-cut crimson red dress heavily trimmed with white-gold lace and pearl beading, a pearl-and-chain necklace, dangling pearl earrings, and rings on her fingers. Her right hand is raised to her chest and her left hand rests low across the front of the dress, holding playing cards by their corners. The card she holds is inverted: a crowned face with closed eyes, blue-shadowed lids, red lips and a red heart suit mark above its forehead. Large faceted cut-diamond illustrations float on the black field at the upper left and lower right, with smaller pear-shaped diamonds between them. The upper right corner carries a huge flowing script logo in white and pale blue with a red outline, in two stacked words.
