campgames's notes about this game:

'I remember playing many Lite a Lines that were located throughout the big city of Newark NJ growing up back in the 1960's,1970's and early 1980's.I bought this 'All Original Condition' bingo pinball from a guy i knew in Utah when i was collecting bingo's in the early 1990's.Lite a Lines are hard to find in all original condition because they were very popular from 1961 to 1971 and were the only 6 card game Bally produced during that 10 year stretch of making bingos. I've been looking for an original backglass for many years and still haven't found one. Most lite a Lines were change over to the SINGLE COIN backglasses in them which were bootleg. This tough to beat bingo game is for a real good bingo player who has over 10 years of bingo pinball knowledge and skills as a player. It is also much smaller than most 6 card games in size and has a woodrail look to it even though this was the first year Bally came out with the shiny metal cabinet side rails and painted red metal legs. The girls on the backglass artwork look awesome dancing perfectly in line and remind me of the first bingo Bally ever produced in 1951 called Bright Lights which was also a six card bingo machine. This six card bingo game was a real money maker for vendors back in its day and were in operation on routes for many years, especially since most all the vendors shut off the only feature Lite a Line had called the center spot number which i never seen light until i bought my own lite a line for my collection. Oh yeah it did have another feature called the yellow lines. This yellow line feature was on every card and allowed a player to get paid out 4 in a line for making a 3 in a line and 5 in a line for making 4 in a line. A player always get cards 1,2 and 3 for three coins but cards 4,5 and 6 cost extra coins to light. Payouts on cards 4,5 and 6 were a lot larger than cards 1,2 and 3.Garage gameroom location 2014.'
