Fireman shoot pool after a fire, 1969. Note also the two railbirds at the upper part of the photo.


I think that guy on the right is using TOI...

Great photo, what's the highest resolution available? This would make an excellent wall print!
 
Not sure about resolution. I just copied it off an email someone sent me. If you paste the image into Google Images there may be someone who has the photo for sale.
 
Look at how close the tables are. I guess I'm not particularly observant because I just noticed a third table to the left with a shovel on it. There is so much crap on that table it is hard to see. Is there a 4th table under where the two railbirds are standing, or is that a car? lol.

They obviously cleared off the table they are playing on. I can't imagine there is any cloth on the table. On the other hand, it almost looks like the rubber rails are still there, but hard to tell. Are those leather pockets still in good condition? It strikes me a little odd that these large wooden objects in the middle of a massive fire survived so well.
 
And thank god for that. If pt109 gives up his humor then I will step in.....I got your back pt.

There once was a man of low caste
Whose puns left people aghast
He was assaulted with stones
Rotten tomatoes and groans
But Cuebuddy said they were a blast

:happydance:

The guy on the left is doing the JB Jump, but the guy on the right is clearly using CTE. Check the 1/2 tip pivot to CCB.

It could just be a massive 'level masse' with a power stroke at 1:30?

Maybe he needs to swerve around some debris that is in play.
 
Those aren't Firemen. They're construction workers. It looks more like a demolition than a fire scene.
