Angled overhead photograph of an electro-mechanical pinball playfield, cropped at the top edge. A large white circular disc dominates centre, printed in flat black line art with a black-and-white drawing of a seated woman in a long flowing gown holding a round hand mirror or compact, her hair curled, one arm raised; beside her a stippled dark mass. An open book graphic across the lower part of the circle reads SAME SHOOTS AGAIN. A ring of numbered coloured target windows (blue and orange) circles the disc, with small letters beside each.

Who and what
Kind Description
Woman Reclining adult woman drawn in flat black line art on a white circular emblem at playfield centre; short bobbed hair, black one-piece swimsuit, propped on one elbow, holding an oval hand mirror up in her right hand, legs extended to the left, a cluster of grapes and a swan-neck lamp behind her, three overlapping playing-card shapes at the foot of the circle
Full description

Photograph of a backbox interior with the backglass dark or absent, so the lit playfield, reels and instruction card dominate. The upper half is a black playfield packed with round plastic bumpers and pop targets, each ringed by chrome trim and lit from within by warm incandescent bulbs; two orange-white mushroom bumpers sit near the top, with an arc of blue round inserts curving across the left-centre. At centre is a large white circular emblem printed in flat black line art: a reclining woman in a black swimsuit holding an oval hand mirror, her hair in a short bob, propped on one elbow on a bed or divan with a swan-neck lamp behind her and a cluster of grapes at her feet. Below the reclining figure the circle carries three overlapping playing-card shapes with partly legible words. On the playfield at right, a yellow ball-ring label and several chrome-railed lanes sit beside star-shaped and diamond-shaped targets. The lower quarter is a black instruction panel carrying two reels of glowing orange-red digits labelled PLAYER 1 and PLAYER 2, with cream-coloured condensed lettering for INSTRUCTIONS, TILT, CREDIT and the ball-in-play digits. Dominant colours are black, warm amber-orange, cream white and chrome silver.
