Manufactured in 1955, Williams Smoke Signal is a gleaming example of what is today termed a "woodrail" by pinball collectors because of the oak trim that framed the playfield and backbox.

As the familiar mechanical scoring reels had not yet been invented, all the scoring was still tallied and displayed by lights on the backglass. The balance of the backglass allows for a wonderfully optimistic take on the great westward, pioneering movement.

Surely the Sooners never looked as good as the backlit belle shown here!
