1976

This is one of my favorite EM (electromechanical) pins, which features a swinging target, two kickers, and a super bonus circle shaped turnstile. Space Odyssey is the less common two player version of Space Mission. Read more about these pins at The Internet Pinball Database.

When I was cleaning up the coin door, I found a very rare Finnish coin entry plate jammed inside the door itself which is great, since it otherwise would have been roughed up too. See the closeup below. It's rare I find a plate so old that has survived so well. Most of the time they are faded or cracked. So, it looks like this game may have been produced in Chicago, went out the country, then back here. Quite a trip.

The all too common cracked quarter plate as seen on the right. Kids must think this is the start button or maybe it's a way to get a coin back?
