Miss America Deluxe
The follow-on game to Miss America Supreme, Miss America Deluxe keeps most of the features of it's predecessor, dropping the highly desirable ability to shift the lines after shooting the 5th ball.However, it adds the possibility of scoring, on the second card only, the three and four number diagonal lines. The two 5-in-line main diagonals score on both cards as they always had.
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.
The third type of magic line is the cleverest. It is
a horizontal line consisting of four numbers. The numbers
would shift right through all four positions. When
a number fell off the right side, it reappeared on the left.
For example, here is the four possible magic line positions
on Cypress Gardens:
