4/12/2009 4:47:50 PM how to date a brunswick table i just bought an old 8x4 brunswick table that i think is a gold crown '1'. The label says gold crown, and the serial number stamped on the frame is 'Kd478'. Any idea how old it is? Also, the frame apron rail colour looks original but does not match the base which also appears to be the original colour.
Is that normal? It sure is a beautiful table to play. I set it up, leveled the centre slate with the feet and the outer slate pieces were perfectly level with no adjustments needed.
Used Pool tables are everywhere on Ebay, Craigs List, and Local Classifieds. 'Buyer Beware' tags should be posted on each of them.
What does it really cost to buy a used pool table? What are the risks? How can a buyer protect themselves from the unscrupulous seller? Would you buy a used car without a car fax history report?
How about without looking under the hood or having a certified mechanic inspect the vehicle? Buying a used pool table presents some similar challenges. Unless the seller will allow you to take the table apart, even a certified table technician can not tell the true condition of the table from a visual inspection.
You must also consider that there are no manufacturers guarantees on a used tables. If you buy a used table from a reputable local dealer they will usually give an installation guarantee or offer to warranty the table through the dealership, like Certified Pre-Owned Warranty at a car dealership. You must factor in the cost of the tear down, move, and reset of the used table as well.
Three piece slate tables are easily damaged when moved in one piece or by untrained individuals. The charge for a reputable local dealer to tear down, move, and reset the table will range from $300 to $600, depending on the make, model, age of the table, and part of the country. If the pool table cloth needs to be replace (which it usually does on a used table), be prepared to spend an additional $200 to $400 on a re-cover. Be careful using contractors who work out of the trunk of their car.

They charge less but are not certified or insured, and will not usually guarantee thier work in writing. You need to research the used table to make sure the manufacturer is still in business and builds quality tables. Pokemon x download for 3ds. Particle board tables with 3/4' slate are next to impossible to keep level and don't last long unless they were built by quality engineers (Major Manufacturers like Brunswick, Olhousen, Connelly) How old is the table? We recently had an inquiry about a used Brunswick. The seller represented that the table was only 3 years old. We identified that the model had been discontinued 10 years earlier and sold new for around $1200.
The seller was asking $1000. Buyer beware. Even new tables are regularly misrepresented as quality wood when in reality they are a wood product such as MDF.
A gentleman proudly stated that he purchased a solid hard rock maple table for $895. When it arrived I pointed out to him that it was a maple finish and not solid maple. He continued to insist it was solid maple until I pointed out that the box stated solid maple finish not solid maple wood, it was MDF (Medium Density Fiberboard or Particleboard). Quality used tables range in price from $1,000.

To over $100,000 for a true antique. Remember, if the table was truly a good deal, wouldn't the sellers friends, co-workers, or Family buy it before it had to be put in a classified ad?
The fact is, 90% of used tables 'for sale' are in such bad condition or so out-dated in style, the seller is usually looking to get rid of it before it costs them any more money. Remember these rules when looking for a used Table: 1: Look for Major Manufacturer Tables less than 5 Years Old. Check the Manufacturers Web Site or email them to confirm that the table was in production during the time frame the seller claims. Avoid E-Tailers Tables Used (pooltablesusa, billiardsdirect, BilliardEX, ec.), you will not be able to get parts and they do not hold up well after the first few years of use. 2: Inspect the Table in Person, Take Digital Pictures, Look under the Table for Damage, Play on the Table a Little, and Look for tables with relativly new billiard cloth (not worn or over 5 years old) 3: Verify that the seller is the original owner, ask them where they bought it, and call that dealer to find out what they really paid for it!
4: Always try to get the original dealer to Tear Down/Move/Reset/Recover the Table if possible, they prefer to work on tables they originally setup and might cut you a break on the price! 5: Finally, Check your total investment against buying a new table from a local dealer, most of the time you will be within a few hundred dollars of getting a new table with a warranty!
First of all - wonderful site. Enough info here to choke a rookie like me! I'd like to know if anyone can help ID my table. It's been in the family since my great great uncle got it for free during the depression (the last depression, not the one that started a couple of months ago). It's been passed from my great great uncle, to my father when I was a kid, and now to me, and I just had it restored by a local carpenter (significant paint removal and water damage repair). It's supposedly a Brunswick, although one person I sent pictures to thought it may have been made by The National Billiard Table Manufacturing Company of Cincinnati or The B.A. Stevens Company of Toledo.
He did say that he was just guessing, though, and couldn't be sure. The Brunswick nameplate apparently dates from around the 1920s-30s, but family legend is that it's supposedly older than that. It used to have ornamental skirts on the sides, head, and foot, but they fell off after numerous basement floods and were tossed in the 1940s - 1950s.
Each piece (including slates, ball returns, and crossbeams) is original with '1048' stenciled or stamped (hold that - pockets and ornamental bolt covers are new). I checked the Brunswick site, and the closest thing I could find was the Union League, although my legs aren't fluted. I'm still leaning toward Brunswick, though, because of the handwriting on the undersides of the slates. Also, 'GEO J MERKLE' is stenciled on the underside of the head slate, if that means anything. I'm apparently as good a cameraman as I am a pool player, so sorry for the picture quality. Anyway, if anyone recognizes it, any info would be greatly appreciated!
You got yourself a great table Its an improved Union League Table from what I can tell in the photo's and some books I have read through. I personaly have missed to great deals on this type of table. I hope you get to enjoy the table you have the best looking one I have seen sofar.
Craig This is all I got from the brunswick site Union League — 1890 to 1899 Elegantly designed in the prevailing Egyptian style. Union League (Improved) From the 1989 Brunswick-Balke-Collender Co. Catalog, page 14: Few billiard tables present such an artistic appearance as the Improved Union League. The legs are handsomely fluted and turned, with square caps and Egyptian moldings. Charming reliefs on the sides, at the union with the head blocks, and moldings running along the sides form a capital foil to the polished woodwork. Elegantly designed friezes in the prevailing Egyptian style completes the decorative part of the table and gives it a splendid finish.
The entire workmanship shown in the Improved Union League is of the highest order of merit and the table has met with the greatest appreciation in all parts of the country. It is perfectly constructed and thoroughly first-class in all its appointments. The head blocks that are features of our tables, are of special construction covered by letters patent, and are superior to those in use in all other tables.
It is this very superiority of design and construction which prompts so many o copy our productions. They fail, however, to equal our tables wither in mechanical construction, finish or material, and their inferiority is easily discerned upon examination. Furnished either as a carrom or pool table or both combined. All combination tables have our patent adjustable carrom plugs, with iron fastenings. Carried in stock in 4x8, 4?x9, and 5x10 sizes. All tables are fitted with Vermont slate bed from our own quarries, imported Simonis cloth, and the incomparable Monarch cushions. The legs, besides being joined with wooden dowels, are fastened with a large iron bolt passing through the entire length of the leg to the top of the head block, thus insuring positive solidity.

Thank you both for the info - greatly appreciated! Any idea what the 'GEO J MERKLE' stencil means? Couldn't find anything in google. Also, quick plug for the carpenter who restored it. He'd never done a pool table before, but is a magician and does fantastic work! His website's if anyone around Fredericksburg, VA needs some quality woodworking done.
No kickback for me, he's just a wood artist who spent three months hand restoring my baby, and it was a rough, water damaged, separating-at-the-seams, thickly painted son of a gun when I delivered it to him! Lets start by saying there were many copiers of brunswick tables a 100 years ago as there are today. The glaring things about this table is the egg n dart moulding all over this table, which i have never seen on a union league. Did the carpenter replace this? The legs, besides missing the bottom three or so inches, has no fluting. The nameplate is definitely not original it has been replaced.
Does it look like the name collender is misspelled in the photo. Thanks for the reply! All moulding is supposedly original - or at least no one in my family has replaced it.
![Serial Serial](/uploads/1/2/3/9/123956158/189301375.jpg)
I don't know that the legs can be missing the bottom three inches. Through studs aren't long enough for three more inches. Table height is 32 1/4' to top of rail. I wouldn't be upset if it's not a Brunswick - I just would like to know the actual manufacturer and model/style so I'm no fibbing when asked (and can maybe get the correct nameplate!). Thanks again! It wouldnt bother me if it wasnt a brunswick either!

It is still a great table. I still think at some point something was taken off the bottom of the legs. It is extremely unusual to see a turned leg without the bottom portion damaged. As far as the height, a lot of antiques were quite higher then newer tables. The bed height can be as much as 32 inches itself. As for the length of the bolt, it is usually recessed several inches up inside the leg. Not positive but pretty sure!

I think you probaly had some good info from whoever guessed b.a stevens or national. That leg really looks like one of those.
The Alexandria was a landmark design for the Brunswick-Balke-Collender Company (BBC). It appeared as the first of a series of Art Deco tables that included the Kling, Arcade, and Hudson. There is one design element-the corbels that link this model to the Mission models of 1906-1911. The Alexandria, therefore, was a bridge between the Arts and Craft ad Art Deco models that BBC produced for the next three decades. The primary veneer is book-matched Circausian Walnut with the inlays of Celluloid, Ebony and Mother-of-Pearl.
The Rail Caps are Brazilian Rosewood with Mother-of-Pearl sights. 1.5' 3-Piece Slate Price: $19,995 Delivery and installation is available anywhere in the United States. Please call Sequoia Billiard Supply for a quote.
