class=\"BodyBold\"><strong><br \/>\nChicago<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If pinball wasn\u2019t invented in Chicago, the so called \u2018second city\u2019 has become pinball\u2019s center of gravity and where it has achieved its pop culture status.<\/p>\n<p>An impressive number of pinball\u2019s classic manufacturers such as Bally, Williams, Gottlieb, Data East, and Chicago Coin as well as many of pinball\u2019s best recognized personalities such as engineer Jim Shird, author-historian Roger C. Sharpe and artist Greg Freres have at one time called Chicago their home city. Stern Pinball, probably the largest pinball company in the world, designs and produces new games in Chicago to this day.<\/p>\n<p>Many reasons exist for this, such as the large graphic arts community found in Chicago\u2019s advertising agencies and the Chicago art collectives such as the <em>Hairy Who<\/em> and and other self-described artistic outsiders drawing (no pun intended!) inspiration from comic books, carnivals and arcades.<\/p>\n<p>The presence of such incubators as the <em>School of the Chicago Art Institute<\/em>, <em>Northwestern University<\/em>, <em>The Chicago Cultural Center<\/em>, and the <em>Whitney Museum of American Art<\/em> (to name but a few) each made signi\ufb01cant contributions to the pinball-friendly climate in Chicago.<\/p>\n<p>During the early 1930s when pinball was beginning to become popular in America, Chicago was becoming known as a capitol of \u2018adult\u2019 entertainment. This rubbed off on pinball possibly in error and possibly not. Many pinball games in Chicago were in fact owned and operated by \u2018gangsters\u2019; as many cash-based businesses were in those days.<\/p>\n<p>Likely because of pinball\u2019s ties to the mob, mayors of cities such as Chicago, New York and Los Angeles came to the conclusion that pinball was a form of gambling rather than an entertaining game of skill. Former New York mayor LaGuardia even went so far as to label pinball as a \u2018tool from the devil\u2019.<\/p>\n<p class=\"BodyBold\"><strong><br \/>\nCoda<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Elmhurst Art Museum\u2019s <em>Kings &amp; Queens: Pinball, Imagists and Chicago<\/em> blends and ferments these three elements into a brew worthy of the latest frothy yellow refreshment from Two Brothers Brewing in Warrenville, IL.<\/p>\n<p>By coincidence or design, Two Brothers Brewing supplied samples of their new craft brewed American Pale Ale <em>Pinball<\/em> for the opening night of <em>Kings &amp; Queens: Pinball, Imagists and Chicago<\/em> on February 24th.
