Old BBC table and Irons

[bankout86]

Anyone able to help identify this table? I can not figure out what model it is... The Irons say Sept, 3 1918 and there is the number 43677 engraved in all the wood pieces. I know my pictures are not the best but its all I have to work with for now until its refinished. Any help would be great. Thanks!

The leg, as best as I can see in the pic, doesn't look original or Bwick.
A full pic of the cabinet might help id it but I'm thinking it may be old Bwick parts thrown together.
Looks like it needs mucho work.

Yeah I know the pictures are not great.. they are just from a phone. I am having all the wood refinished and getting new pockets. The slate is in really good condition and all the irons seem to be the same.. I dont think its parts thrown together because all of the wood has the same five digit number on it? I dont know tho.. could be. I should be able to have some more pictures of the entire thing here in a week or so. The legs and part of the table has been painted on so that is why they look like they are different parts.. its just been sitting in a basement the last 40+ years and hasnt been played on in a long time.

There any way you could say what number iron those are?

 

[Mr. Bond]

thats a wenco iron (Wendt)
and it looks like the rail may have been modified to accept them

 

[bankout86]

are those cheap irons or....? Obviously they are not Brunswick so therefore can not be original..

 

[Mr. Bond]

they're not cheap per say... wendt made some good tables in their day, they're just not brunswick.

Jerimy Chambers fabricates those irons if you need some. I believe Ken Hash also has some too.

but then again - you may just want to return the rails to original condition, if that is indeed a brunswick table. in which case you would want the brunswick #6 instead
