Full description

Full-length electromechanical playfield photographed from directly above in its wooden cabinet, lit with warm bulbs so the metal ramps and plastics glow orange. At the top, an arched tan banner reads ADVANCE CARD TO PLAY above a huge bulb-studded word BINGO in fat rounded red letters outlined in yellow and white, flanked left and right by painted portly men in wide-brimmed sombreros. Below the title sit two white-and-red pop-bumper caps marked 10 and a central blue 500 disc, with yellow flipper-shaped plastics and clear plastics below. Mid-playfield there is a rectangular clear window showing the card deck, three AD VANCE LETTER windows under it, three red 100 POINTS panels, and playing-card faces tilted left and right showing the club and the heart. Two grinning moustached men in pink shirts and broad hats sit either side of that window. The lower half is a tan desert with two red SPECIAL arrows pointing inward, 100 POINTS banners in the corners, two painted women in teal and blue shawls holding fans, a small seated woman in magenta, a white rabbit, a yellow dog, green agave plants and cacti. A red V-shaped apron carries two chrome-edged flippers or return lanes, a flowing script wordmark over a small three-line address block, an INSTRUCTIONS card, a MANY TIME BONUS GAME card, and 5 BALLS PER GAME.

Square Western-themed backglass in a dark timber frame. At upper centre-left a large sign hangs from two chains against a mustard-yellow wall, reading FULL HOUSE in fat red block capitals with black drop shadows, flanked by black horse silhouettes. Top edge carries Williams in red script beside a circled W. A vertical yellow strip right of the sign reads BALL in PLAY in stacked blue capitals, and GAME OVER appears in turquoise at top right. The centre shows five card players crowded round a green-felt poker table: a woman in a red cowboy hat, a grinning man in a pale hat and floral shirt, a man in a teal shirt with red sleeves raising a fan of cards, an older grey-haired man in a dark suit holding a glass, and a partly hidden man in a dark hat. A black acoustic guitar and a kerosene lantern hang at left. Right side shows a saloon wall with a cowboy on a rearing horse, a WANTED poster, a star frame and a mountain picture. A smiling auburn-haired woman's head with a hoop earring fills the lower left. Centre bottom holds a white hexagonal reel panel reading 0 7 6 9, above seven playing cards and a red ribbon banner.

Full description

A bright, cartoon-illustrated backglass split into two zones. Left: a saloon interior in yellow, orange and teal, with a crooked white marquee sign edged in red and blue that reads TOP HAND in fat pink slab letters with a dark blue drop shadow, hung by two blue chains. Two brown-and-white pinto horses are printed on and beside the sign, one rearing above the word TOP, one standing to the left of HAND. Below, figures crowd a red card table under a hanging orange oil lamp with a blue shade: a grinning cowboy in a red shirt, blue jeans, black embroidered vest and white hat; a man in a green shirt, patterned neckerchief and black wide-brimmed hat; a man in a green suit with a wide straw hat tipped back, moustache and goatee; a fair-haired woman in a strapless pink-and-yellow dress; and a bearded man in a blue hat, yellow shirt and embroidered Western vest. Lower left a large brunette woman's head in three-quarter view with turquoise earrings smiles out of the frame. Right of the table, a white panel carries four mechanical score reels showing 0 3 4 5, with red text beneath. A row of five green card holders along the bottom displays real playing cards, and a red arrow banner reads BALLS TO PLAY. At far right, a blonde cowgirl in a green fringed shirt, red-and-white embroidered vest and green shorts, wearing a wide sombrero decorated with coloured stones, leans against a saloon door.
