Is the table located in New York? The nameplate looks like it could be C.L Castle, formerly of Syracuse, NY.

The design looks like a copy of a Brunswick Narragansett.

If it is in excellent condition (including the pockets), it might be worth $2-3K... However, finding that buyer could take several months or even years. Most typically, you're looking at $1500 or so. If it is in just decent condition, with typical wear, maybe less than $1000.

You also have to be mindful of any work that may have been done on the table. If the cushions were replaced, was the work done properly? Also, if they were replaced, is there any usable life remaining?

Often times, the money made on these tables is in the move and installation. Unless you're getting it for free, there isn't likely much to be made on reselling antique tables.

Nice summary. The value of expert input is why this place is this place.

I'd add that sometimes the value of included accessories is greater than the table.
