ABOUT

The flyer for 'Skipper' indicates new "multi-tone chimes" were used. The game that preceded it in production, Mibs, used bells. This would establish 'Skipper' as Gottlieb's first game using the three-chime assembly. The schematic for this game identifies a 'ones' chime, a 'tens' chime, and a 'hundreds' chime. We previously showed a date for this game of November 1969. The new date is per Gottlieb documentation.
