Thanks! Yes, sold the machine on Gumtree! Was tough to sell the machine and now also the cards but time to let them go to someone else to enjoy! :)

Thanks but thought I would sell them! Cheers

Thanks Pleiades10, Looks like the Midway games in 1976 were the first.... Cheers

Thanks arc, EM Games? So Sea Wolf may be the first?
