I followed this entire auction. This table is missing the original coin mech. I already have 3 of this type table, one w/o coin mech, for which I am actively searching. I did not want to be looking for two of these mechs.

Thanks.

Yes It Is...........

Thanks for posting a preview of your museum.
I am disappointed however, that my case isn't in plain view.....:(
It's probably about the size as one of those little antique mini coin op's....:)

Hi Cuesblues,

Your case is in this cue room, which is quite a bit larger than the picture I posted. I must admit, the case I got from you is very, very special and it has its own really great "resting place".

Take care,

Will

BTW, I am still searching for one more of these small tables. I have bought 3 in the past couple of weeks! Thanks!
 
Do you have a picture of the coin mech you are missing? I run into some antique coin mechs quite a bit and if I run across the one you are missing I'll pick it up for you.

I'll be at the Texas Pinball Festival in March, where in years past there were tons of antique coin mechs / coin op parts.

The coin mech I am missing is the one on the table shown in the first post of this thread. If you look at the picture I posted later in this thread, you will also see it on one of the closer tables.

Again, just like the one in the picture in the opening post. I really need this mech and would REALLY step up in price if you have one, or find one.

Thanks in advance for looking. You may even know some pickers who have one. I will buy several of them.

Thanks Glen,

The picture in post #11 was part of my muddy backyard area under construction when you came to pick up a table that you delivered to Ohio to my brother!

I remember that room when it was under contraction, you've done a wonderful job of finishing it off. When I get up to your area of the country I'll drop in and have a look in person. Robin told me that he may know of 2 or 3 more tables like the one he has, so when I have time tomorrow I'll post up the pictures of the one at his house I took. It looks like an antique Brunswick table, sure is cute tho, and with a real slate and all:grin:

Glen,

I look forward to the pictures, and also you coming by the house next time you find yourself near this way. Stay overnight and I will treat you to a KC BBQ feast.

Here you go Will:grin: I tried running a rack of 9ball on this thing, but just like on the big tables...I still couldn't run out...so to anyone that thinks playing on a big table helps your game on a smaller table...you're all NUTS!!!:rotflmao1: with an 18" x 36" playing surface, this table is about as cute as a new born baby, as it only gets ugly as it gets older:p

Cool table Glen!

I have determined the secret to my success running balls at pool is to play with large pockets and small pool balls!

Thanks for the pictures!

................and if you come across any tables like the small coin op ones i am pursuing, be sure to let me know!..........................................

I believe this is an English table, and quite a bit bigger than what I am seeking. Thanks.

The other pic in the ad is a side view and it is smaller than it looks in the first picture.I imagine there are not many of the tables left that your looking for,but I also imagine if one comes up that there are not many who would want one.
 
Wrong........

The last two Billiardettes tables like I am seeking sold for over $2850 each. It would amaze you how many are looking for these tables. The British tables are fifty percent larger and don't fit in with my table layout. I have 14 tables right now.

One fully restored Billiardette sold last year at Chicagoland for $7950.

The table in your ad was not originally a ten cent table, not US. May have been converted along the way.

Thanks.

Cuesblues,
Dartman,
CMBSU,

Thanks to each of you for the responses. I appreciate it, and if you come upon one, I am really in the market to buy a couple for a project. Thanks!

I have attached one picture to give an example of how I am using the tables.
