QUINT PREMIER BASEBALL GAMES ANNOUNCES PROMOTION FOR THE 34TH NATIONAL
CREATORS OF NON ELECTRONIC VINTAGE STYLE MECHANICAL BASEBALL GAME



Quint Premier Baseball Games has created a highly collectible, non-electronic, vintage style mechanical baseball pinball game, so that two people can play a real game of baseball just as the game is played on any field or ballpark in the world. Each game is numbered and signed by the creator and developer, Richard L. Quint, Jr. Purchasers can personalize the game by naming the field, park or stadium. They can also choose either wood grain or a red brick finish to surround the playing field. The game is built to last and is a beautiful piece of furniture that can act as a centerpiece for your baseball memorabilia collection.

The Quint #3 game (think Babe Ruth!) is being donated to the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, the #7 game will be donated to the Yankees and #24 will be sent to the San Francisco Giants to honor Mickey Mantle and Willie Mays.

Players choose their individual teams, fill out their own lineup cards and can easily keep track of the location of runners on base as well as balls, strikes, outs and innings played. Pitchers can throw fastballs and changeups and inside and outside pitches. The artwork for the game is similar to antique pinball games from the past, The scoreboard is a replica of an early 1900's scoreboard with a wooden catwalk which sets it in place. The golden Roman arches are remiscent of the Los Angeles Coliseum.

Quint Premier Baseball Games is offering a special discount to 34th National attendees. Take advantage of the offer below.

Just booked my airfare and room for the Nationals. Will be flying in from Baltimore Thursday morning and leaving Friday evening. Would have stayed longer, but I'm usually out of money by the second day, so it was no use staying through the weekend

Given current promotions it looks like Upper Deck will be getting most of my money, which is opposite of usual.

I will be at the National. I live in the suburbs, and bought a VIP ticket, so I plan to be there on Wednesday evening for the VIP party, and Friday and/or Sunday.

[MattDMC]

Just bought my ticket, heading to the show Friday only and picked up tickets for the Bobby Hull and Tony Espo autos.

My first time for a bigger show/convention like this so I can't wait!!! Now I just wish I didn't blow most of my budget on ebay the last 2 weeks... guess I'll be doing a lot of looking

[Zuback]

One day. I will go. I still have to go to the larger ones in Toronto and Vancouver.

Matt, see ya there. Always plenty of looking to do no matter how much money you have.

If your looking for hockey those two shows are a must. If if any other sports the Nationals will have what your looking for.
