Pool Table ID -- please help

[KCRack'em]

I purchased an antique table (9-foot pool table) sight unseen as it is about 2,000 miles from me. As of now, I only have one picture (call me crazy, but I liked it that much based on this one picture). The owner is out of the country, so I don't have access to additional pictures until mid-January and I'll pick it up sometime after her return.

I am very curious to know exactly what it is. The owner is a widow and her husband purchased it. She doesn't know details but has the information at home. I'm impatient and would love to know what I'm getting.

I have asked several people to look at the pic, and posted in the History section when I was considering the purchase. So far, the answers are mixed and no answer is definitive. It could be a Wendt........ I initially thought (hoped) it to be a custom ordered Kling, but that seems unlikely.

Thanks,
Karl

This table looks like a Kling. Although not exact, have you been to Brunswick's site and gone through their A through Z list?

yup

I've been there and to every resto web site that I can find. I am baffled as is a friend of mine. I originally convinced him it's a Kling, and now we both agree that it isn't.......

Yes there are a few things that are not exact. I believe that Brunswick altered their tables slightly on many styles. One thing is for sure it is a beautiful table so get it and then figure out what you got.

Hmm definitely things that don't add up to it being an original condition Kling... I guess since it's Christmas I can take it off your hands cheap so you can keep your table spot open for what you really want =)

Um, I'll keep that in mind. You wouldn't believe the story behind this thing......
I so appreciate your thoughtfulness, Renfro!
