Don't know what manufacturer it is, but the design looks 50-60ish imo.
As a kid, I had a old Schwinn fat-tire bike in the 50s.Back in the 50's everything was made out of asbestos.

Don't remember any asbestos parts on it.
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.

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

Anybody else see the face in the second picture on the right in the dark? or is it just me?
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!
Does that play any better than standard slate?
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.
