Night Rider

Full overhead view of an electro-mechanical pinball playfield in a wooden cabinet with chrome side rails, glass reflecting a window. Top third is a crowded, brightly painted motor-race motif in red, cream, blue and orange: three round pop-bumper caps with sunburst rings reading 100 POINTS, a red central plaque DOUBL[E] BONUS, small arc score numerals 60, 80, 50, 2000, and a huge chrome-and-cream 3-D wordmark across the middle of the upper field reading DOUBLE BONUS in italic red-outlined capitals. Two flag-dressed grandstands flank the top with painted crowd figures. Down the sides run white ball-guide rails, two slingshots labelled SPECIAL with red/orange targets, and side panels reading TARGETS DOWN SCORE EACH, in dark blue. Lower half is a huge gold-and-blue fan of radiating stripes: eleven small oval insert targets in two arcs with numerals 1 to 11, a lit 1000 POINTS insert, a 1000000 insert, a green round DOUBLE BONUS lamp, and two large round drop-targets marked COLLECT BONUS. Two identical painted women in white open-face racing helmets, blue bodysuits and yellow scarves sit in blue racing car cutouts left and right. Two red flippers, a yellow REST STOP / THIS EXIT / COLLECT BONUS window, white INSTRUCTIONS card, large blue-and-red script logo, NIGHT RIDER card and 3 BALLS PER GAME text fill the lower apron.

Full-length electro-mechanical playfield shot under glass with warm bulb glare. The lower half is dominated by a huge yellow-and-orange sunburst wedge rising from the apron, flanked by two mirrored teal-blue triangular panels, each carrying a painted blonde pin-up in a white-and-red swimsuit reaching forward out of a yellow starburst. Two red rubber-tipped flippers flank a central metal ball trough. Above them a curved script logo reads DOUBLE BONUS, flanked by round COLLECT BONUS inserts, with a fan of teardrop score inserts arcing up the middle. Across the upper middle, big yellow black-outlined letters read BALLY'S 6TH POKER on a red-orange striped band, flanked by two pale star-shaped SPECIAL inserts. The upper playfield is a dense jumble of chrome wire ramps, white mushroom pop-bumper caps, a horseshoe chrome rail, and a black TARGET SELECTOR disc with a red arrow. Teal side lanes read TARGET'S SCORE TO EIGHT. The cream apron carries a huge purple script logo, a NIGHT RIDER card, an INSTRUCTIONS card and 3 BALLS PER GAME.

Translucent backglass in a wooden cabinet frame, dominated by a big yellow-and-cream tanker lorry seen head-on and slightly from its left flank, its cab split red, yellow and white with a chrome grille, twin round headlamps and a red trailer behind. A blonde woman in a white waitress uniform with a red neckerchief stands at the truck's left holding a tray with a white cup, one hand on her hip. At the right, an older grinning man in a white flat cap, glasses and brown jacket leans through a service-station window holding a bottle. Background is a night-time desert filling station: dark starry sky, deep blue with scattered stars, orange and yellow horizontal bands suggesting sunset, and a pale car speeding away at lower right. Four rectangular score windows with orange seven-segment digits sit at the corners, a translucent green/yellow insert panel at top centre, and five teal instruction panels line the bottom.

Airbrushed truck-stop backglass, blue starry night sky behind horizontal red, orange and green sunset bands. Top: white cursive script mark at left, a big cream-and-tan block-letter title 'NIGHT RIDER' with an orange lightning bolt through the middle, and above it a yellow sign panel reading 'KING OF THE ROAD'. Centre: a red, yellow and pale-blue semi-truck with chrome grille and gold wheels; a blonde woman in a white blouse and skirt with a red sash stands left of it holding a white mug; a bearded man in a blue flat cap leans from the lit cab window at right. Behind them a white trailer reads 'BALLY XPRESS'. A yellow starburst reads '10 to 4' over 'PUTTIN' THE HAMMER DOWN' with two dials. Lower right, a battered pale-blue muscle car skids with flames on its roof. White score windows show reels; black spark-plug posts with orange 1, 2, 3, 4 hang over the art. Base panels read '1 TO 4 CAN PLAY', 'BALL IN PLAY', 'ROUGH ROAD', 'DEAD END' and 'GAME OVER'.

A printed pinball backglass in bold comic-book style, framed by a chrome-blue bezel with a red, yellow and blue striped border. Across the top, on a yellow parallelogram with a white and grey bevel, sits the title in large italic white block capitals with a heavy black drop shadow reading TIGHT RIDER, with a small yellow cursive Bally script at upper left. The blue star-speckled background frames a huge red, white and yellow cab-over truck angled towards the viewer, its white trailer carrying BALLY EXPRESS in red capitals. Left of the truck stands a blonde woman in a white top and white shorts, a red sweater tied round her hips, one arm raised holding a bar. Right of the truck is a bearded man in a grey flat cap and red shirt leaning out of the cab window, arms folded. A small pale-blue saloon car with a driver is drawn at lower right on a curved grey road. Four black rectangular score windows sit two at top and two at bottom, with four numbered player buttons 1 to 4 on a yellow burst at centre. Along the bottom edge are instruction panels in teal, green and yellow.
