Wanted: New Home for the Pacific Pinball Museum

Posted on September 4, 2012 by Anna Newman

The Pacific Pinball Museum is looking for a new home, a setting where they can show more than the current fraction of the fantastic collection of games, teach kids about science, and spread pinball joy and luv. Can you help out, even a little?

Frank Lloyd Wright meets Pinball Donut Girl

Posted on August 27, 2012 by Anna Newman

On Sept. 22, Pinball Donut Girl will have an advance screening of the full featurette at the 2012 Pacific Pinball Expo, held at the Marin County Civic Center Exhibition Hall in San Rafael, California.

Frank Lloyd Wright, who designed the Marin Center would surely be pleased. I mean, look at the detail on one of the buildings in the complex and tell me Lloyd Wright didn’t love pinball!
