Big Time
The follow-on game to Variety, Big Time is pretty much identical except you can move all five columns on the bingo card up/down one position.Oh, and the cabinet is a lot uglier.
magic lines games
The first feature that mechanically moved numbers!The numbers on the bingo card were on strips that could be moved one position by turning knobs/pushing buttons on the foot rail.
Usually, the numbered strips were the vertical columns of the card, and they could be shifted up/down one position. When a column was shifted up, the top number "wrapped" and became the bottom number. The bottom number wrapped to the top when shifting down.
Miss America introduced horizontally shifting lines that used two 5x5 cards next to each other. A number could be slid from one card to the other.
