1970s Hole In One - ホールインワン by 関西企業 (Kansai Kigyo)

 

Name: Hole In One - ホールインワン
Year: 1970s
Company:  関西企業 (Kansai Kigyo)

Hole In One is a vertical coin-flick game that awards a prize at the bottom slot when you can get a coin into the winning hole.  There are two columns that accumulate coins and if you enter into one of the associated holes the coins are dispensed from the front cup.

The clown logo was used up until 1977, so we know this game was before then.  I have not seen Kansai Kigyo before 1974, so probably safe to assume it was between 1974-1977.

I have never seen this game advertised in a catalogue or magazine.

 

oh and Jack Nicklaus
