Don't think a thread like this exists, so....

Show off your cabinet finds! Treasures lost to time and rediscovered when you take the time to vacuum the backs of your cabs.

This is not an easy job and is often overlooked, so many things survive a quick vac.

I love how these treasures sometimes reaveal a small part of the game's life.

If pins had eyes you can only imagine what they've been through.

I'll start with a couple I've had recently:
 
1990 Whirlwind

Discarded by the op and lost for nearly 25 years

German beer, pinballs, a jukebox... sounds like a blast 🇩🇪 🍻

Goodie bag still has the slingshot mylar option and a pair of flipper spacer gauge tools.

This is when they weren't 100% that Diamond Plate would be as good as it was long term.

Then there's a little bag....
