Bob:
Sounds like you are getting ready for a 'Daval Hump-Top Lineup'. Your list has most of the harder-to-find examples.
I have been wanting to do the same for a long time, but never get around to restoring the complete set. Even though
they are not at the top of my list of favorite models, there are a nice variety of different games, and would make for
a pretty colorful exhibit. Do you have all of the others, that are not on your want-list? I have a few duplicates, but
they are not all complete, like the usual missing back door. When you listed "Joker", I am assuming that you meant
the "Joker Gum Vendor", as the other model is in a wood case. Good luck with your search at the Chicago show. Just
make sure to refrain from buying Fantasy Junk at the Vegas Butcher booth. No telling what he has in store for the
latest uneducated collectors. It is getting to be more commonplace lately, with people reselling the Junk that they
got snookered with, and found out too late, what they had bought. Only problem with that, is the next guy in line
gets re-snookered.
