    Just talked to them on facebook. They said the 5th generation is the sky blue? The sample picture looks more green though... https://www.3cushioncues.com/ROYAL_PRO_5_CAROM_CLOTH_10-FOOT/p2041797_18157381.aspx

    Rob, why just a sneak peek? I'm sure you have some great stuff to share!! This is great brunswick history. I have that "blueprint" image also. It came as a photo copy with my table. I am going to use it for wall art also. Do you know the origin on this "blueprint"? Was it in a brochure...

    here are the 2 hi-res scans. The 2 files are around 19mb. They are PDFs so kinkos should be able to print them as large as you like. Ian

    I know its a good distance from you, but this is an early GC1 with the plastic name plate. I have never seen a plastic name plate in this condition. This probably is an indication of the rest of the table. Don't know what someone would charge to move it, but if you got the table for 1500, you...

    Brunswicks site has a handful of GC images. Here is a link to a few but they are pretty low res. http://brunswick.pastperfectonline.com/library/412D466A-409C-48EC-B91F-988163986220 I have a couple original copies of the blue table with gold cloth flyer that I had hi-res scanned. If you have a...

    Beautiful Table! What type of paint did you use? How did you spray it? Thanks for sharing Ian

    Pool Ball Collecting.

    Thanks for sharing the side by side and your synopsis. I always wondered if KT convinced aramith that the IPT was going to be huge and got them to produce so many set they had no choice but to re-brand them and keep selling them.

    Opinions: Ball Return or NO

    Its interesting how strong opinions are on both sides. I bet it aligns with what was in the first pool hall you frequented and fell for the game. Mine was drop pockets and I much prefer this on a table. No bending over, if you are the breaker you empty top 2 and a side and the racker gets the...

    Opinions: Ball Return or NO

    The skirts covered the ball return tracks or the drop pockets. My table came with a ball return, I converted to a drop pocket as I don't play straight pool. I did leave the ball return box installed though, I like the looks of it. I didn't realize the plastic skirts were optional? I...

    Here is one in STL that looks to be in great original shape for 800 OBO. Just spoke to seller and it sold last week. These come up pretty frequently. Just keep an eye out of CL. https://stlouis.craigslist.org/spo/d/brunswick-vintage-pool-table/6467537466.html

    Dating a Gold Crown 1

    Just wait a bit longer. Run at that price. I would not pay 500$ for that table. Again for me the condition of the formica is probably my biggest element if you want a great looking GC. All other pieces can be fixed very easy. I remember years ago someone had NOS Brunswick formica? Even if...

    Dating a Gold Crown 1

    I have had both a Plastic and metal name plated GC1. On both the backs were unpainted. Here is a picture of the metal name plated GC1. Maybe it was just how the painter at the factory that day decided to do it?

    yes a few guys and mechanics on here have done that. I appreciate the original looks of the GC and changing the formica to something else would take away from that IMO.

    Dating a Gold Crown 1

    definitely a GC1. That is one of the original 4 colors. Its interesting, the sides and base are in good condition but the formica has more wear than expected based on the rest of the condition. Lots of dents and damage. To me, the formica is the biggest area of concern if you want a great...
