Saw my buddy Seth Hogue & Geoffrey Brediger, who are volunteering their own time to help save Cleveland’s West Pierhead Lighthouse. Just like Playhouse Square, sometimes it takes a few people to say, “This is worth saving.” No money asked for just a Pledge:https://form.jotform.com/262088882050056

cleveland’s soon-to-be finest heavy metal pinball arcade under construction. photo shows jake making what was a small hole in the floor into a larger one while dad uses a circular saw in the background. text reads: “back to work today, patching holes, this one molly’s dad’s leg went all the way through.”photo of ridiculously bad patch job that the aforementioned molly’s dad stepped right on the middle of. text reads “the bad patch job that nearly took out our best helper! nailed up from underneath so there was no support”photo of rotted out floor with a trim piece that is the only thing holding up a wall joist. text reads “speaking of no support, check out this load-bearing trim. we noticed the stud was coming with it when we pulled it.”BLACK MAGICK jake, aka zard, plays some aerosmith pinball at brick and barrel in cleveland to decompress after a hard day of patching floors.

bar progress continues, working on fixing the floors so the pinball machines don’t fall through! #cleveland #pinball
looking up through a big hole in the floor you see a vaguely threatening woman in a cannibal corpse hammer smashed face t-shirt holding a hammer. you wonder, “is she about to hammer smash my face?”man sitting on edge of giant hole in the floor, legs akimbo on the supports, pulling nails out (yes, I definitely used akimbo correctly, no need to look it up)looking down through a large hole in the floor, you see a menacing looking man with a flashlight. don’t fall in or he’ll getcha!

check out my humiliating score on x-men from last league night. i HAD to get a picture, and when i leaned over the machine to get it my belt buckle hit the center button and launched the next player's ball so insult to injury, that was a DQ for me! #fml #pinball

From PLAY METER vol 9 number 9, May 15, 1983, p. 99:

For instance, he’s got more than 400 brand-new bumper caps—the old-style daisy and sunburst designs—in case he comes across machines that need them.

“I try to keep the same style of cap on a game when I recondition it, and plastic parts are the hardest to find replacement parts for,” he said. “I buy parts, such as old bumper caps, even if I don’t need them now.”

Berk even has new playfields for games like Williams’ Jackpot and Bally’s Captain Fantastic and Wizard, although he doesn’t own any of these games. He figures that since they were such popular machines, he might get one someday—and he wants to be prepared with a spare playfield.

And Berk is always looking for new games to add to his collection. Since add-a-ball games were never popular in Ohio, he’s had many of his machines shipped from out of state, particularly Wisconsin, where add-a-balls thrived for years.

Except for three games in his basement, Berk’s games are stored (disassembled) in the paper company warehouse where he works. Also stored there are his “vintage” games— covered with plastic to avoid damage—games like Genco’s Mr. Chips (1939), and Gottlieb’s Broncho (1947) and Marble Queen (1953).

Berk and the other members meet monthly, either at members’ homes or nearby arcades, to play and talk about their games and new trends in the industry.

Captions:
Rob Berk is fascinated with the add-a-ball games of the 1960s and ’70s. Here he is with some of his pinballs.

Club members firmly believe in the appeal of pinball and expect to see it around for a while.
