    ipdb.notes
    Rocket has the same playfield and artwork as Genco's 1950 'Mercury'. Genco's 1950 'South Pacific' has a similar playfield layout but with an extra switch between the flippers and no pop bumper. In the Encyclopedia of Pinball Volume 1, Steve Kordek is credited as the designer for this game. However, in 2011, Kordek told Chicago Expo founder Rob Berk that the designer was Harvey Heiss. Production start date: 05/08/50 Production end date: 05/24/50
