Imperial Shuffle Alley
Description
The 1953 United Imperial Shuffle Alley Bowler is a 6 player model that was the first bowler advertised to have "Realistic bowling pins more than twice the size of former pins." This bowler offers a "triple match" free game feature. Free games are obtained by matching the last digit of any player's score with the match number (1-9), by matching a randomly generated "star" match, or by matching a randomly generated "clover" match. The 5th and 10th frames provide a triple score and the 3rd and 7th frames provides double the score. The bowler can be adjusted for 5 or 10 frames.
