High Speed

A full-length electro-mechanical pinball playfield seen under glass, photographed from above with the cabinet and lockdown bar in shot. The lower two-thirds are dominated by a large circular centre emblem: bold italic block letters HIGH SPEED in white with heavy black outline and a red drop shadow, sitting over an orange-and-yellow sunset sky above a black silhouetted treeline, with a low-slung red open-top sports car seen head-on in the foreground. Around that medallion is a ring of radiating wedge panels in orange, yellow, blue and cream, each carrying a black letter, a number or a word, plus a bank of five mechanical score reels below reading 50,000, 75,000, 100,000. Thin cream lettering under the reels reads FREEWAY SCORES LIT VALUE. Red arrow-shaped score panels run up the right side, and one wedge is lit bright green. The lower deck is dark red and black with cream and yellow pinstriping: a black circular DRIVE AGAIN well sits dead centre between the two cream rubber flippers, flanked by mirrored instruction blocks reading HOLD FLIPPER BUTTON FOR STATUS REPORT. A yellow disc with a maroon crown-like emblem decorates the apron centre. Two white instruction cards sit at the bottom, one headed HIGH SPEED, the other reading FOR AMUSEMENT ONLY / FREE PLAY. Metal wireform ramps and ball guides arch over the upper playfield, which is a dense collage of red, yellow and green.

A wide painted backglass dominated by a hot-pink wedge-shaped sports car seen from behind, driving away down a straight multi-lane highway that converges on a vanishing point at the centre. The car's four round tail lamps glow orange and its engine bay shows a row of chrome intake trumpets. Either side of the road a flat red desert plain carries a black picket fence, telephone poles, power lines and a few small palms under a banded red-and-pink sky. Across the top, huge block capitals read HIGH- on the left and SPEED on the right in pink-to-red gradient letters with white and dark drop shadows, split by a small dark rounded plaque. Below, the dashboard of the car fills the lower half: a black and blue instrument panel with four rectangular score windows, a central gear-patterned gear selector plate, a green digital readout on the left, and yellow turn arrows above green and white square buttons. Two blue-tinted police officers in peaked caps and sunglasses lean in from the lower left and right, one holding a hand-written ticket and the other a red flashing POLICE beacon.

An airbrushed sci-fi police backglass. Left and centre is a black-and-white police car seen from the front-left, with a chrome grille, roof light bar and a shield-shaped door emblem reading POLICE beneath a red heart-and-arrow motif. Leaning over the roof stands a humanoid robot: gold and chrome helmet and shoulder plating, black torso, ribbed silver abdomen, segmented limbs, dark visor. Behind, a black silhouetted skyline against a hot red, orange and magenta sunset sky, with neon-lit facades at far left. The ground is a perspective grid of glowing magenta, red, green and white lines. Upper right is a large gold police-badge medallion: an arcing ring of red letter tiles reading LA RETATA, a gold banner reading LOS ANGELES POLICE, the number 714 below, and inside the badge two painted male head portraits, one in a dark police cap and one bareheaded with dark curly hair. Lower right sits a yellow-orange sports car with a rear wing. Four black score windows in two rows are labelled INTERCEPTOR 1, 2, 3 and 4, with a small red police-lamp icon and pink handcuffs below.
