That's John Brannon's I think. I saw that machine many years back picking up a Theatre of Magic from John. He also has a TAFG that's still in the box.

Don't know who this is, but I can say that MANY moons ago when I first purchased a couple of "A-list" pins they were from John Brannen, and we saw and played both Big Bang Bar and King Pin at the time of purchase. We had no idea what they were at the t ime, values have gone up a bunch since, not quite a decade ago (early 2000 IIRC), so things have changed...

Not sure who it belongs to, but I was under the impression that he sold those off a couple of years ago, and aside from that, I would doubt that he would post something along the lines of, Oh, I just found it was a #1. John knows what he has, what it might be worth, and will get a fair price, period. Personally, I would doubt it is JB. If it's Brannen, he knows what he has, and he is not the type to play dumb. IMHO, FWIW.

Hmmm...

After reading recent posts on RGP, I think I should rescind my last post, I'm not as confident now, perhaps it is Brannen.

The seller's first name is John and he's an older gentleman from Ohio. Gene used to talk to him at auctions and such.

Gene has been to see him last week (on his way to A-Town). I don't know anything else.
