Identification of 1961 Gold Crown Ball Set

[jfred0826]

Hello to all.

Recently, I acquired a very nice Gold Crown I table. The gentleman I got it from knows its history back to the mid sixties, when the second owner got it. He thinks this ball set may be the original that came with the table, and possibly dates back to 1961-1965.

Can any of you provide any possible date info by looking at the box and the color scheme of the balls? The photo doesn't do justice, as the balls cleaned up beautifully, and are quite shiny.

Thanks for any help or opinions.

Box and balls very much are original for that time period, looks like a nice set

If the table is as nice condition, you have done very well

Hi Fred-

Congratulations on the GCI.

Just having that vintage set of balls is very cool.

Take care

Thanks, Billy.

Yes, the table is in excellent condition. I consider myself very lucky to have found it.

You got some nice old balls!

Seriously though, it hardly looks like they have been used, I bet the table is in amazing shape. Congrats.
