Big Strike Bowling is a popular mid-1960s German wall machine. Very simple in design, the electricity is just used for illumination and I think for winning a free game when you get all of the numbers flipped. The numbers flip when you go through them, and your shots counter progresses each time the ball falls through.
Very basic but fun game!
They are not super rare, worth usually $200-$400 depending on region. They were sold in Germany, UK, Japan, and USA through different distributors.
If you can snap one up for a decent price they're fun to play with, and less complex than a 1970s pachinko
Don't expect it to last too long in your collection though.
