I am wanting to sell a 9 ft BBC table called a Monroe it is stored at American Billiards in Charlotte NC, Table is valued at around 14 thousand I am told restored. This table needs restoring 1 leg is real soft from wetness in basement where it lived for last 75 years where it was not played on for 45 years since owner died, the laminate was glued on tables 95 to 100 years old like this with hide glue and it loosens with age as it turns to powder. This means it needs wood work and there is a gouge in rail that needs repair, I was told about 3 thousand dollars but I am not wanting to wait as my new home is finished and I have empty poolroom just waiting on tight pocket Diamond 9 footer. Table is 95 to 102 years old i believe and will be a beautiful table for a special home, the slate and t bolts are great and alone worth 1600 dollars and I will accept any offers at or above $2125.00. Table pieces are wrapped and numbered and can be looked at and picked up in Charlotte NC. Thanks Leonard 704-449-2334 C or 704-334- 8427 W
 
I do not have pics of the actual table but several sights show the old brunswick tables, there were a few named after presidents and some were really alike for the most part. When I first looked at it I thought it was a Maddison but the guys at American Billiards knew it was a Monroe and showed me the slight difference I will try to find website and post what it would look like restored. This was what I payed for table with one set of the first plastic pool balls inventors ball set in box and a few old cueballs.Buyer can have all and will take partial trade of ratcue for me if you want the table.
 
Seriously, yo. I REALLY doubt anyone is going to make an offer on a table if your are not bothering to take the time to borrow a digicam and take a few pics.

2 grand is a lotta money. Didn't you know?

Pictures would be very hard

I can try to get pictures but the company that removed table from the basement it called home for 75 years carefully bundled and taped every piece and stored it at American Billiards in Charlotte NC,even worse for me it is stored in a rack about thirty feet high. Please dont give up I will contact them to see if o kay
