Find of the Week: Mr. Quarterback Football Passer

/ Gallery on Main/

Vintage backard game by Coleco!

In its original box, dated 1977, this automatic passing machine for one or more players is in excellent condition. Machine works great -- nothing cracked or broken.  It appears that there were screws to hold the yellow "hand" that's attached to aluminum arm; screws are missing and need to be replaced before using. A very easy fix.

The original football and spikes to anchor it into the ground are missing. Visit our Etsy shop to see more photos. Everything you see in those pictures are what's included including original instructions!

Put on your suede Pumas or Adidas sneakers (or Sears, JC Penney, or K-Mart Special knockoffs) and striped tube socks, and ride your 3-speed or 10-speed bike to Gallery on Main* -- you could be playing Mr. Quarterback in no time! Bonus points if you arrive in a 1970s Camaro or Firebird -- don't forget, Fridays are Cruise Night in Somerville!

*Sneaker, tube socks, bicycle and car not included. ;)
