I hope that's wood the table is resting on. Back in the 50's everything was made out of asbestos.
As a kid, I had a old Schwinn fat-tire bike in the 50s.
Don't remember any asbestos parts on it.
Just lead paint probably. Johnnyt
You may be bringing a few guests along with the table. Unless that is dust in the air or on the camera lens, there seem to be a few Spirit Orbs in the second picture.
Nice table tho, I would get it if I could regardless of the Table Ghosts.

I've seen marble on a few different tables...

Think it's a 9' and no markings. It's supposed to be c. 50s/60s. There's an opportunity to get this, but don't know if it's worth fooling with. ????
Interesting comment about the marble. Never heard of anything like that before.
Thanks all in advance for any help.

Does that play any better than standard slate?
You guys are freaking me out on this table. I see what you're saying though...lol. :shocked2:
Thanks for all the leads on this, both here and offline. It'll be seen in person tomorrow and if there is any kind of identifying info, will report back here.
I spent an hour today scouring the interweb only to come up with nothing. I am reall curious to find out the history behind this table. Hope you find out more!
I'm right there with you. My web search produced zilch.....and that's pretty unusual in this day and age.
I think I found the answer: http://www.dkbilliards.com/blog/2010/05/pool-table-of-the-week-05101/. It's from the 60's I guess. It says it's a marble top.
But I still like the comment about being JA's nightmare! :thumbup:

Only the picky people can tell the difference. I don't think I've tried a jump shot on marble, granite is popular in the UK, I have a few cosmos 9' tables for sale that have granite instead of slate, I have not hit a ball on one so I can't respond how granite plays.

Nice catch. Johnnyt
I heard (maybe wrong) that marble sweats. Johnnyt
Thanks, Dave....talk about pulling a needle out of a haystack.
You ever heard of them?
Think it's worth saving from the dump?
