The Addams Family

A photographed pinball playfield, seen slightly from above with the backbox glass reflecting across the top half, so a long brick archway and two glowing green tube ramps are seen through the reflection. The lower two-thirds is a cream and black haunted-house layout: a big grey mansion facade with a green shingled roof, dormer window and about ten lit windows, tiny ghoulish residents behind several of them. Above the roof an enormous yellow-orange fireball cloud of jagged flames, filled with flying black bats and skulls, and topped by the title lettering in curling gothic script. On the cloud sits a round black clock face. Left of centre a framed picture shows a bald man in a long black robe standing beside a seated woman in a black dress. Two enormous yellow cartoon hands reach up the right side, and a bald, wide-eyed, bearded man's head with an open mouth is painted at the bottom centre between the flippers. Two bright yellow flippers, red-and-yellow posts, blue round bumpers, an orange drop-target face and a blue dome fill the remaining space.

A painted, airbrushed night-time scene of a large stone mansion filling the frame, its facade lit in cold blue and its arched windows glowing orange and yellow from within. Dead centre stands a pale woman with a short dark bob in a floor-length black dress, held in the arms of a broad-shouldered man in a black-and-white vertically striped prison suit; white-blue lightning forks out behind them across the roofline. Around them the mansion windows hold a whole cast: an upper-left laboratory scene with a white-coated figure and glassware, three pale ghostly faces in the top-centre arch, a man in a tan suit in the gable window, a yellow star and crescent moon in mid-left windows, a woman leaning from a window in a mustard dress, and two window placards on the right reading STOP and HELP. Along the street at the bottom sit a black 1930s-style open tourer car with whitewall tyres, a hatted man in a dark suit and two women in long dresses by its door, two men in the right foreground (one striped-shirted holding a model sailing ship), an orange dog, and at the far right a green-skinned, green-haired creature looming over a smaller green figure. A white cursive company signature sits top right; a tiny copyright line runs along the bottom edge. Gothic horror-comedy in blues, black and orange.

A full rectangular painted backglass dominated by a pale blue-white clapboard house at night, its steep gables and sash windows filling the frame edge to edge. A huge white lightning bolt forks down the centre behind an embracing couple: a dark-haired woman in a floor-length black dress and a man in a black-and-white pinstripe suit with bow tie, his arm round her waist. Lower left a long brown 1930s saloon car stands on grass with a black-uniformed chauffeur in a peaked cap and a woman in a pale green coat beside it. Through the windows: a man at an upright piano in an orange-lit attic, a pale skeletal figure in a blue-lit room, a statue behind a dark cage-like object, and a round red sign in a right-hand window. Lower right two boys in shorts and jerseys stand by a rooftop aerial, one holding a long thin rod; a green vine creature with a face climbs the far-right column and a severed head lies in the grass. A small brown dog rears up on its hind legs between the couple. The very bottom is a cream banner spelling the title in separate yellow square tiles, flanked by black stars and red hearts.

A full-width painted night scene of a big two-storey suburban house lit in cold blue, with warm yellow light spilling from eleven lit windows. A tall man in a black-and-white vertically striped suit with a bow tie stands centre, holding a pale dark-haired woman in a long black dress; both are haloed by jagged white-blue lightning bolts that crack across the roofline. Around them, a green vintage saloon car with whitewall tyres sits at lower left beside a black-suited man holding a long dark object and a woman in a shimmering green flapper dress. Lower right, a boy in a navy-and-white striped sailor shirt holds a long white fishing rod beside a girl in a red dress. The house windows are packed with props: a mummy case, a star-and-moon poster, a skeleton in an attic, a figure in a top hat, a cauldron with a bubbling face, a large leafy monstera plant, and a severed head. Bottom border is a mechanical fretwork panel of white maze-like tracks and black teardrop shapes, with two cherries and seven yellow tile squares carrying a black star and the letters T H I N G. Colours: cold blue, black, warm yellow, white.
