United and Bally were the only two true US manufacturers of bingo pinball machines, and in the 1950s they fought an all-out battle to capture the elusive bingo pinball machine market.

Lawton's analysis is complete with photos of rare games and playfields and descriptions of complex bingo pinball circuitry.
