Free game of Putt Putt anybody?

[redwine]

For all the different machines type in all the different places in the U.S. there are obviously going to be Putt-Putt machines that will take tokens with other designs on them.

I don't know what machines they would be?  They did have batting cages on some of the sites so that could be a possibility. Or Slots perhaps?
I've never played or been to a Putt Putt place seeing that most are in the US.  Has anyone been to one?
I'll get in touch with the Putt Putt Corporation and nail this one down.

They are all medal aligned.

I do not know if they have produced any others but I shall find out

Looks like they are for machines, my illusions are shattered, I feel like a crumpled score card discarded in the dustbin

It seems you can get 50 tokens for $5 to play the machines in the game room - can anyone call in and get us some?

I quote...

'Putt-Putt Golf N' Games is open everyday from 9 AM to midnight. It features three 18-hole miniature golf courses, a game room....
   .....These package deals also include 50 game tokens that otherwise go for $5.00'.

World of Coins has struck again. Anything can be researched and all knowledge can be improved. Highly satisfactory.

Enjoyed that. Consider yourself encouraged. I am sure there's more to add on that page, if only some info on the company and some useful links.

Very good.

Just added a link to your Putt Putt site to one of mine at https://sites.google.com/site/malsprojects/machine

[redwine]

Many thanks guys
I've added in some links and will write a short history once I've digested all the material I've just discovered!
Apparently the Putt-Putt franchise had over 700 operators at one time Worldwide.  There was one in England too, which I didn't know
