    ipdb.notes
    'Ding Dong' is the replay version of 'Smarty' The following information was submitted to us anonymously and therefore we are unable to contact the submitter to learn more about it: "Ding Dong" appears to be a reissue of a 1954 Williams game named "Ding Dong Schoolhouse" as both the playing field and the backglass are almost identical. I know this because my father was vice-president of Williams at the time and I played the game when I was about ten years old in the factory. Additionally, I have a working 1954 version in my basement. Furthermore, I do not believe that Norm Clark was working for Williams in 1954. If you are the person who submitted the above information, please provide us a way to contact you.
