Argentinean photographer Santiago Ciuffo has captured the Argentinean pinball scene in a wonderful series of full page photos. This book shows his best work. The photos in this book mostly focus on bingo and pinball machines manufactured between the mid ‘50s and mid ‘80s by companies like Bally, Williams, Stern Electronics and D. Gottlieb, as well as some rare games from small European manufacturers.

 

Besides giving an inside look on pinball in Argentina, the book also showcases the often forgotten art on pinball machines. Ciuffo’s eye for detail is shown in photos of games with artwork by artists like Roy parker, George Molentin, Gordon Morison, Doug Watson, Christian Marche, Paul Faris, Greg Freres, Kevin O’Connor and others.

 

For the first time ever a book on pinball is being published in thirteen different languages, covering some general pinball history, as well as interesting stories about the history of pinball in Argentina. Inside the book you will find the English, French and German translations. The other ten languages (Danish, Dutch, Finnish, Hungarian, Italian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Spanish and Swedish) are available as additional supplements (to be ordered separately).

 

The international edition (208 pages) contains even more photos than were published in the original first Argentinean print (180 pages). It also comes with a printed 80-page special edition of Pinball Magazine, featuring an exclusive interview with Ciuffo in twelve language. This special supplement magazine contains exclusive photos by Ciuffo which do not appear in the book. There is also a digital version of this special supplement magazine, which can be downloaded for free below!
