I just came across this machine, but have not been able to find out anything about it on the internet. Would appreciate some input. Thank you.

Hi,
Your machine was originally designed and manufactured by Peo Mfg, Co. but they also licensed several other manufacturers, including Keeney who redeveloped the machine and mounted the Baseball feature, Gottlieb, Pace, Royal, Fairchild, Keeney and Fields all made this machine in 1931.
We did an intensive article on this forum a couple of weeks. about the origins of this machine.

Hi,
Your cabinet is a Pace cabinet, the top Baseball unit is from either Gottlieb or if it is electric it is a Keeney unit.

Attached are pix of an original Pace example, showing the decal on the side, and the fancier front casting.
Most of these machines, from what I have seen, with the flat steel front, were Peo Mfg. But I also realize
that several other mfrs. had their fingers & noses in the works as well.
