What brand is my cloth?

Just bought a 9 foot GC with 5 year old very very very lightly used cloth.
Looks like new.
Seller told me it is Simonis 860 and that it was professionally installed.

I've removed the cloth from the bed and cushions.
There is no marking on the backside of any of it.

The only thing I can find is a red dotted line (sewn in) down one side of it on the back side.

Any idea what brand it is or what it is?
I'm not reusing it, but it's in such nice shape, I thought maybe I could resell it for a poker table or smaller pool table recover???

Thanks.

Simonis is marked on the top, not back side. If your cloth off the bed does not have the Simonis logo printed on an (finished) edge then you can shine a blacklight on the cloth and look for the Simonis mark with bolt lot number. If not there then it's not Simonis. Possibly a Champonship cloth as they use different colors of thread down an edge for the different styles they sell.

So I'm doubting this is Simonis like I was told.
No name or labeling on it.

It looks to be nice quality and tight.
I believe it's worsted.
Has a red line stitched into the factory edge.

I'd assume all you mechanics have dealt with multiple brands...
Can anyone tell me what brand this is?

I wouldn't say that. IF that's what it is, it's a woolen cloth that is trimmed smoother than most woolens, doesn't 'pill' much, and is faster and thinner than most woolens. We've put it on a lot of coin-ops and it wears pretty good, is about the price of other woolen cloths, but plays better IMO. It's a decent cloth, but Simonis is still a big upgrade.
 
Well. I've got no use for it.
Any idea what it's worth in resale? $50? more less?

Looks like that brand would have sold for $120-$150 new.
