The Pinball Museum (Museum of Pinball), located in her Banning California, houses one of the largest collections of pinball machines. Sadly, this amazing toy museum is closing its doors for good and will be auctioning off more than 1.100 pinball machines.
The museum's principal owner, Mr. Chuck Casey, confirmed that he had been unable to secure a new location for the museum collection of and will now be forced to auction off all the machinery and toys. However, this means that collectors around the world could potentially own one of the pinball games. You could get one if you want to participate in the auction.
This huge museum opened in January 2016. However, the space where it is housed does not belong to him and the owner wants to turn it into a hemp farm. The solution was to move the museum somewhere else. During the negotiations for the transfer of the museum in Palm Springs, California, the company faced quite a bit problems which he could not overcome.
As Mr. Casey stated: "All efforts to transferinstallation, or sponsoring or selling to a collector, unfortunately didn't work out. Therefore, all games will be auctioned in the coming months. There will be an official announcement. You will be able to bid online and/or in person. The auction will be held in Banning at the Pinball Museum. Pins and vids are sold by auction only.'
It seems that the non-profit organization of the museum had to leave due to the cost and time of renovating a new building, storage costs and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
