Brunswick Antique Pool Table Name?
Unfortunately this is the only image I have of it- I know it's not the best.
We inherited this table from our grandparents. It is an antique Brunswick pool table and initially I thought it might be the York from their Library. However, the table there does not have the inlaid designs that you can see in the photo.
It does have a plate that verifies Brunswick, but I don't have a photo of that. It has inlaid diamonds along the top of the bumpers, and metal caps along the sides.
It's 58" by 108", but I naively measured it to the end of the wood, not the felt. It's probably 4' by 8' in that regard.
It may have been a snooker table that was adapted into a pool table?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am looking into this, but more photos are almost essential in identifying it correctly. All sides, underneath, from above, and of course, of any markings, plates, etc.

When you say where, do you mean geographic? I live in Massachusetts, but the table was inherited from Wisconsin.
Here's an additional photo that couldn't be edited into the post.

Thanks that is helpful.
I apologize that I read your original post hastily, and realize now that you inherited the pool table.
I will still look into it, but I am not going to invest a lot of time researching until you can take some higher-quality proper photos of all identifying marks, etc.

The table was originally in a bar in a silver mining town in Colorado.
Here are some additional photos. I do not know what you mean by "identifying marks", but this is what I've got:
This is the best quality photo I have of the original illustration of the table.

Amazing. This is great. Is that from the Brunswick archives, or is that from your family's records?

It was from our records- but unfortunately it's unlabeled. Maybe it's possible to find it on the records from the illustration now that I've found it. I'll take a look at their Library again and see if I find any matches.
