Stern SEAWITCH
Short-Run Reproduction Playfields from CPR
Finally in rotation at CPR, after 10 years of holding off !! At the end of the old CPR Art Team years 2008-2011, our art director Stu had completely finished the SeaWitch playfield layout in brand new vector artwork by 2012. Due to our local buddy John Greatwich forging ahead with his new Direct Ink testing and offerings, John took SeaWitch under his wing at the time, as one of his lead projects. CPR stepped aside on the title, and let John take care of the SeaWitch community in need of playfields. Stu’s artwork was shelved. We later took up the torch for the SeaWitch backglass and plastics instead. That SeaWitch playfield legacy went for the next ten years, until John (Great Pinball) closed his operations. CPR decided to finally haul out our SeaWitch playfield project, and finally add it into our offerings. Thus the first batch of CPR SeaWitch reproduction playfields are finally here.
CORRECT COLORS restored to original Stern colors (not matched to the aged/darkened look – see gallery examples). Put that pop back into your game with the proper rich blues, teals, and yellow.

| Notes: | Artist Bob Timm told us he did both the backglass and playfield for this game while he was at Ad Posters. He said cabinet art was always done at the cabinet maker and, as far as he knew, none of the game artists had anything to do with it.
Pictured here is a cabinet bottom of a game with serial number 1644 showing a “brick wall” design. We do not know how many came from the factory with this “brick bottom”. The “brick bottom” shows up on other games made in 1980: Williams’ 1980 ‘Firepower’ and Stern’s 1980 ‘Quicksilver’. Reportedly, this game was also manufactured in Australia by Leisure and Allied Industries under license by Stern Electronics Inc. However, Stern’s production data does not indicate any knock-down games were made, which is how other Stern games were exported to Australia. *Info courtesy of IPDB |
