has abstract	Edward Paul Krynski (September 12, 1927 – November 15, 2004) was a pinball game designer and innovator who worked for D. Gottlieb & Co between 1965 and 1984. During this time Krynski designed more than 200 games and innovated new pinball standards such as the laneways to the flipper, carousel targets, vari-targets, multiple drop targets, and the first solid state pinball machine with the speaker in the backbox instead of the bottom cabinet. Krynski is a member of the Pinball Hall of Fame. The first pinball machine designed by Krynski was Hi Straight, released in December 1959, and the last was El Dorado City of Gold, in October 1984. The Internet Pinball Machine Database identifies 225 machines designed by Krynski, including "300", 2001, 4 Square, The Amazing Spider-Man, El Dorado City of Gold, Genie, Spirit of 76, Central Park, Royal Flush, Big Shot, and Sing Along. Stan Lee, the co-creator of Spider-Man and public face of Marvel Comics, claimed ownership of one of Krynski's first The Amazing Spider-Man pinball machines off the assembly line in 1980 and kept it in his Marvel office until he auctioned it as part of his "Stan Lee collection". Lee said that "Over the years, I have spent countless frustrating yet perversely enjoyable hours attempting to play on it, as have numerous colleagues, friends and business associates (some quite famous, though a combination of modesty, shame and my legendary bad memory prevents me from divulging their names here) during their unrelenting pilgrimages to my office. In fact, I think many of these scions of arts and industry came over JUST to beat me up at pinball. I hope its new owner will be a better player than I am." Krynski served in the U.S. Navy during World War II.

Gottlieb & Co., con sede negli Stati Uniti a Chicago, Illinois. Per più di vent'anni fu l'ideatore dei piani di gioco di oltre duecento flipper, dando un fondamentale contributo al successo della produzione della Gottlieb. Krynski fu l'inventore del , ovvero del bersaglio a scomparsa, montato per la prima volta nel flipper "Crescendo" del 1970, accessorio presente su quasi tutte le sue macchine. Ed Krinski disegnò il piano di gioco di un solo flipper privo dei drop-target, "Super Orbit", ma lo fece solo dopo l'uscita nel 1972 della versione originale, "Orbit", che invece montava gli immancabili drop-target. Il primo flipper realizzato da Ed Krinski fu "Dodge City" del luglio 1965, mentre l'ultimo fu "Amazon Hunt" del settembre 1983. Ben 125 dei flipper ideati da Krinski furono curati graficamente da Gordon Morison, un altro grande talento, ed insieme costituirono per circa dieci anni un team creativo forse rimasto insuperabile, che realizzò negli anni settanta una serie di flipper considerati classici del loro genere: tra questi, "Galaxie", "Drop-a-Card", "El Dorado", "High Hand", "Top Card", "Jungle King", "Ten-Up", "Atlantis", "Sky Jump", "Royal Flush", "Flying Carpet". Le loro ultime tre collaborazioni furono per tre flipper: "the Amazing Spiderman", "Circus" e "Counterforce". Ed Krynski partecipò molte volte in anni recenti agli eventi della mostra Pinball Expo a Chicago. Morì all'età di 77 anni, il 15 novembre 2004. (it)
