Phil & Roger have been friends in the pinball industry for many years. Phil as an operator and distributor for Data East and Gottlieb. Roger, initially producing wall mounted “penny games” and then as an importer and distributor of video arcade machines and Williams pinball (1960’s - !991). He also owned the Fun City arcade in Auckland.


































Below is a letter that Roger sent out to operators, praising the virtues of the then new Data East Gun’s n Roses machine. It is endearing for it’s content.
