Regarding Nutting ...Thank you for the information. Regarding Nutting Table Tennis, I have some confirmation that you're right on in your estimate that it was an early 1975 game. I've got one of these tables, inherited from my mom, and I've just found the information/instruction book that went along with it, including the Certificate of Warranty showing the serial number with purchase date of 4-16-75. My parents recalled that it was ordered as soon as it was released. It also includes a price list breaking down the cost of the components of the unit (pretty interesting on its own, actually) with a date of February 1975. So while there theoretically could have been an earlier version, the published materials and early 1975 availability seem to corroborate that '75 was when it was actually released.Andrea Roadynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8167179463808604240.post-31637296458399332752013-05-16T07:46:05.105-05:002013-05-16T07:46:05.105-05:00Great post.

I have always been a big fan of <a href="http://www.arcadeclassics.net/arcade-machines/cocktail-table-arcade-machine-vertical-games/" rel="nofollow">cocktail arcade</a> table tops. I can't believe how far they go back. I want a vintage arcade machine in my house one day. Thanks for sharing. Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15122599196657892636noreply@blogger.com
