Additional Info
Two versions of Joker Poker were released in 1978: an electromechanical (EM) version and a solid-state (SS) version. The EM version is well-regarded for its mechanical action.
The EM version of Joker Poker is less common than its solid-state counterpart.
Gottlieb was known for quality electromechanical games, and Joker Poker is considered one of the iconic EM machines just before the transition to solid-state.
