For a while, it looked pretty far from what one would expect based on present-day pinball machines, which are known for their spring-loaded plungers, pair of flippers, bumpers, and drop targets. It was not until 1947 that the first pinball machine with flippers debuted (DeLeon, 2012) and set the precedent for decades to follow.
