As some may know I have a special room where I keep my cues.
It has its own furnace, air conditioning, digital humidity control, and more.
For 20+ years I have used the small antique coin-operated pool tables
that were made ca1931-35 as part of how I exhibit and enjoy the cues.
The tables are genuine and each weighs kinda like a refrigerator. Unique and rare.
I am changing the room radically (and am very apprehensive) even though I love how
the rare small tables work in my vault. I have come upon a very, very rare Akam billiard table,
they were made from 1879-1883. Everything below the rails is cast iron, extremely unique, and
CG Akam became very quickly known as one of the world’s best table makers.
A good friend of mine has worked in the world of antique billiards for 40+ years, has traveled to
likely every state in the Union in his acquisitions and operations, and told me he had only known
of (not seen) three in all his years.
Next week is a big week. In it goes…
