I have an old brunswick ball return 3 inch solid slate table. Trying to figure out what it is worth?

Question

Brunswick plaque at head of table

Table has ball return

Solid 3 inch slate ( 1 piece)

Not coin operated.

Full size 8 foot table

Needing information of worth and value.

Am thinking of selling, but if it is an antique would like to know.

Answer 1

It's value is going to depend on it's age, it's condition, and it's rarity.  If it was something that was mass produced and there are thousands upon thousands out there, it won't be worth much.  If it was something that was only made for a short while, and only a few were made or if it was custom for someone, that could drasticly raise the price.  Also condition is a key factor.  If you find out there's some value, inquire as to it's value if you had it reconditioned as well, then check into who can do that for you, and how much it would cost before you sell it.  As the best links to find some of this out (brunswick, and antique dealers) have already been posted I won't duplicate, just keep this additional info in mind.

Good luck,

Here is a link that you can check out. http://www.antique-pool-table.com/antiqu...   If you can send them some pictures of your table they will give you an accurate appraisal. It will cost you but it may be worth it in the end. are you sure that it is 3 inch slate? Never heard of 3 inch thick slate before. One solid piece of that must take a lift truck and a couple of circus elephants to move.good luck to ya!

Answer 3

The problem with selling any pool table is that moving it. Sometimes, you can't give them away. Take a picture and contact a local billiards store. They'll be able to tell you.

Answer 4

This may help you a little more. Contact www.brunswick.com and inquire there what it might be worth. They will be able to steer you in the right direction if they don't know.

You might try looking under the table. Sometimes a craftsman will leave a name and phone number and a date on a table they've worked on. It's worth bending down to look.
