Of course you can't buy a new, 1960's Brunswick cue rack, and if you come across a used one, it's always a lot of money.

But, upon examining the pics of them, it occurs to me that this might be an easy thing to clone.

From the catalog:

"Designed to enhance the billiard room decor as well as being functional, the Gold Crown Wall Mounted Cue Rack holds 12 cues and is available with a gold or blue back panel. 44 1/2" high x 27 7/8" wide x 4 15/16" deep."​

So, we have the outside dimensions. The rest can probably be figured out with this reference, from the pics available.

Of course, if some kind soul who has one would be kind enough to trce the contours and make some measurements, that would be great!

Thoughts?

Yes, that's the one, thanks. Would need more pics, though, to make a plan to make one.

Wondering about the spacing, cue to cue.

The guys at Billiard Restoration are really cool. Call and ask for Derrick. He may just measure one for you.
 
These are very easy to clone, right down to the emblem which are available as reproductions.

To do it properly though, one would need an original to measure and layout as there is at least some minor complexity for certain parts.

otoh, if you're considering making one for the purposes of saving money, you would be ahead of the game by finding one used,
 
Mine came along with the used table I bought.
