I came across a real GC2 on ebay today. Its ironic timing with the discussion in Scotts thread.
The following info is all my opinion. I am not a mechanic, just a GC fan. Notice these pictures, they agree with all the statements in the original brunswick literature. Rosewood aprons, dark feet, brass ball box. These pictures even show the GC2 decal on the stretcher. IMO 99% of tables ever discussed on AZbiliards are GC1. I feel the GC1s had a few design updates and before the internet people just made assumptions, shared the info and it turned into fact. GC2 were only made for a couple years after the pool boom. There just aren't very many of them out there.
