Does anyone have any info to share on this model of antique Brunswick and approx. value? I’m assuming an old Brunswick like this is well-made but may need new cushions. If it does, what would be the best cushion replacement to make this a top-quality table?

The Monroe ca. 1928
Looks to be a Monroe. Appears to have been restored.
call Ken Hash at Classic Billiards.
Nice looking table, but probably not worth as much as the seller would think unless it's being sold to some rich person for decoration and "vintageness". Probably a $1,000 - 1500 table IMHO seeing what tables like that actually sell for outside of a dealer room. Like a lot of older muscle cars, someone puts in $30,000 into a car they can sell for $20,000.

Well it is not my problem now because it sold in record time. Seller was asking $2100. Tables in my area (Kansas City) are junk or if not, sell immediately for high prices. I’m not able to take on a project (which this might have been), so am OK with it. FYI: I have been trying to buy a new Olhausen for a week but the dealer has ghosted me. Crazy world!
those are great old tables. if you are not trying to have a gold crown or diamond.
that price was a steal imo. but i like those old tables much more than a commercial looking new one. plus the great slate of the past is not available like it used to be. as well as workmanship.

In my opinion you are better off without that antique table. I don't think they make proper profile cushions for it anymore, it probably takes a Monarch Superspeed, they are no longer made, its the same problem with early Gold Crowns. You have to have the sub-rails modified to get them to play properly with todays cushion profiles.
