Machine Description

Double Action (Gottlieb, 1958) is a classic woodrail pinball machine designed by Wayne Neyens with artwork by Roy Parker. Released in October 1958, it features a two-player competitive format with alternating shots and target bonuses. The game’s central gimmick is its “double” scoring action—hitting certain bumpers and targets triggers higher scores, encouraging precision play. With its vibrant 1950s art and strategic gameplay, Double Action stands out as a charming example of Gottlieb’s postwar design creativity.
