Here's a story that will give any self respecting pinball collector nightmares. An Australian mother is forcing her son to sell off a huge portion of his pinball machine collection!
Anthony Donnelly, 42, of Hurstville, NSW, Australia, has a collection of more than 250 pinball machines that apparently has gotten to be too much for his mother to handle. So he is going to auction off about 100 of them including machines from the 1950's to present day Stern pinball machines.
While this is an extremely sad story, there is possibly one good thing that will hopefully come out of this: Mr. Donnelly says that he hopes to use the money he gets from selling his pinball machines to open a pinball museum!
Let's all hope that the auction goes well and he gets top dollar for his pinball machines. Another pinball museum like the one in Las Vegas would be a good thing.
