Pinball Queen sets tough pace


Looking through my pile of Canadian Coin Box Magazines, I stumbled upon another article about the Pinball Queen of Canada.



The article is from the February 1977 Canadian Coin Box Magazine titled Oriena Currie sets tough pace. The article, written by Margaret Mironowicz, is a reprint from The Globe and Mail.

At the time the article was written Mrs Currie ran Currie Distributing, Currie Amusements and was a partner in Home Games Inc. Later in the article Mrs. Currie admits "...she doesn't love [pinball] machines and doesn't play them herself, although she used to years ago."

A business woman in the 70's! That's pretty inspiring. Enjoy the scans.
