Stardust

A bright yellow electro-mechanical playfield seen from above under a clear plastic cover, with the lower apron and backbox instruction cards visible below. The dominant background is saturated yellow, overlaid with large jagged starburst shapes in teal, magenta, red, black and white radiating from the centre. At the very centre sits a large orange circular disc with concentric rings and a red-and-black star motif, ringed by a blue-and-white starburst collar carrying red round targets. Two vertical lanes on the left and right sides contain large painted star-and-lightning panels in red, yellow, teal and black, each with a white cartoon hand and small green star. Across the lower half is a fan of ten plain cream score reels set in a chrome arc, printed with values from 1000 up to 10000 either side. Above the reels, translucent red and white plastic pop-bumper caps and small round yellow lamps crowd the upper playfield, which is framed by green, orange and yellow geometric art. The artwork is flat, hand-painted mid-century graphic design with heavy black outlines and no human figures anywhere on the playfield.

A flat, brightly coloured pop-art backglass on a saturated yellow ground. The main title STARDUST runs across the upper centre in tall, condensed, all-capitals block letters, lettered in a red-to-orange gradient with a heavy dark red outline and a thin white keyline. Directly above it sits a small red-and-white cursive company script logo beside a round emblem. Across the upper right, in narrow black sans-serif capitals, is the slogan It's more fun to compete. Invite competition. The composition is built on hard-edged geometric bursts: large five-pointed black stars with thin white outlines, plus jagged overlapping triangles, wedges and spikes in pink, salmon, orange, teal, blue and pale green, all radiating outward from the centre like a starburst. Four black stars carry white outlined player labels 1 UP, 2 UP, 3 UP and 4 UP, one in each corner region. Four horizontal score windows sit in white-bordered cream frames with dark brown edging, two flanking the title high up and two lower left and lower right; each holds five mechanical digit reels showing pale numerals. The lower right has a jester- or clown-like painted figure with a blue-green face, a long pointed orange and red plume or hat, and a wide open laughing mouth, half-hidden behind a white ball-in-play track. Small five-pointed yellow star sparkles are scattered across the yellow field. Bottom-left small print reads Play flipper skill games for fun and recreation, with BALL IN PLAY in heavy black caps beside a white horizontal rail.
