Antique miniature pool table

westcoast · Aug 22, 2019

Ran into this last week at an antique shop in Hermosa Beach

It is selling for $5500!

When are the tournaments going to start on the 3 footers? :smile:

Don't know why it posted sideways. Sorry! Don't know how to fix it

Looks quality made... Possibly slate... Would be a super cool novelty... But $5500... Let's see, a golf cart I've set my sights on, or a 3' pool table... hmmm lol YMMV

Did you get this from St. Vincent DePaul? I think I saw that exact take there about 3 years back (at a completely different price).

It's not mine- I don't know. I just saw it at the antique store and thought people would get a chuckle out of it.

I certainly don't have the $ or interest frankly in buying it. Interesting novelty item though!

Somebody on here collects these I think and they were looking for more. Could be a different style or size though.

Will Prout maybe? John Mars?

I cant search for people on my phone, maybe somebody can message them?

In some ways that table may be challenging to play on actually. Adjusting to the tiny playing surface and smaller balls would be quite weird. Somebody should start the mini table US Open!

Isn’t that what Chinese Eight Ball is?

Nice tables with multiple uses.
I own over 25 of them, and display some of my cues on about a dozen of them.
I have 11 different models/designs, all coin operated.
Very cool items.

Love the Ferrari case and the Kling influence on the cabinetry.

So, the question is.....

Is that table worth the asking price of $5,500?

What a truly incredible collection, displayed with such vision, craftsmanship and elegance. Bravo, sir!

Wow great collection!

My jaw just dropped when I saw your amazing room display of mini-tables, cues, etc....so awesome!

OP - do you watch the UFC or MMA in general? You look like a mixture of Stipe Miocic (current HW champ) and Greg Jackson (trainer from Jackson-Wink MMA).

I don’t really watch ufc or mma unless friends are watching it. I looked up pictures of those guys and I must say you are right- I do look like a combo of those them.

I've had some people tell me I look like Thorsten Hohmann
