In 1941 Mutoscope sold one of the best arcade games made in the 40's. When a coin was inserted an air raid siren would sound and an enemy bomber would begin to circle. When the plane is illuminated by a spotlight you have to choose the correct gun battery to raise and shoot at the plane. You scored points by hitting the plane. A red light on the bottom of the plane would indicate a hit. Point scores would be recorded on the backglass. If the plane was hit enough times an animation unit would show the plane going down in flames on the backglass.
