That is awesome!
A few notable details.
This was still a time before goalie masks, as shown on the 2 goalies.
Goalie function includes side to side as well as 2 spring-loaded poke-check spots.
The surface is tilted in various spots to help avoid unreachable pucks.
I’m not sure when the first ones were made, but it has a Patent Pending stamp behind the Wings net, which I found interesting.
Also interesting is that each side has a 3 on 0 offensive line against the goalie, with the 2 defensemen beside the net, who can only swivel. It seems to be an odd set up since there’s no real defending possible. It’s a fun game to play even with this set up, but I can understand why they soon switched to one defenceman in the center of most games.
The only missing piece I know of is an arch over center ice where you can drop the puck from, and possibly a scoreboard.
I had one made in the mid 60’s that included players for all 6 teams. Those metal cut outs were kind of sharp, too. My uncle was playing rough with me and I fell onto the game. One of the figures went through the skin between my thumb and index finger and I could see all the bones and stuff.
I got 15 cents from the ER doctor who stitched me up for being brave and cooperative. Probably could have got a lot more than that today.
